Harbour Front
By Don Nelson Architects
With its prime location and curved form, this home makes a bold statement. The owners of this home commissioned Don Nelson Architecture to design their modern, Mediterranean-style home on a prime site overlooking Tauranga Harbour.
A curved path beneath curved pergola beams, lead visitors to the entrance. The columns supporting the beams add drama. The homes modern interior blends contemporary living areas with well-planned indoor-outdoor flow. Floor-to-ceiling glazing is a prominent feature and free-flowing curved forms lend an organic feel to the light and spacious living areas. The modern kitchen enjoys views of the pool and harbour beyond.
A gracious curved staircase leads from the double-height entry foyer to the upper-level bedrooms. A large, eye-catching chandelier complements the proportions of the space, while a circular skylight brings natural light into the home’s interior.

About the
Professional
Don Nelson believes in the potential of architecture to enrich the lives of those it touches. For over 30 years we have influenced new home and renovation design throughout New Zealand and in Queensland, Australia.
We are committed to integrating rigorous design processes with the unique needs of each client, to produce architectural designs of distinction. Good architecture uplifts the human spirit. Good architecture communicates modesty and clarity of purpose. Good architecture demonstrates honesty and integrity with materials and forms. Our architectural optimism is most clearly embodied in the attention to detail apparent in all of our designs. Don Nelson’s philosophy is to create architecture to inspire the soul.
A truly stunning home needs a design that is more than just pleasing to the eye. Ideally it will reflect your personality, family, location and lifestyle. Your home will include areas for interacting and yet remain private. It will take advantage of your location, but not dominate the space.
For over 30 years Don Nelson Architecture has been designing homes with lasting appeal.
