Country House Whitford, Auckland

Farmhouse New Build

This concept design is for a beautiful countryside property in Whitford overlooking the estuary. Close to local wetlands we were inspired by the  concept of the bird watching hide - a place that would be a quiet private retreat, from which you can observe the environment around you.

A cluster of buildings, including garaging and a minor dwelling form a sheltered courtyard through which you enter the main house. Screens provide filtered light into the main living spaces and the central terrace opens out on to a pool area. The materials are honest and textural, natural and sustainable allowing the owners to feel at one with the landscape.
