Rothesay Bay House
The client brief was to undertake alterations of an existing family home on the cliff top edge of Rothesay Bay on Auckland's North Shore. The design provides a modern four bedroom home, designed around the existing garage and building footprint, with a new master bedroom with a discrete lounge attached.
The home recycles much of the existing slab and groundwork structures. A combination of cedar shiplap vertical and horizontal, metal cladding and plaster have been used combined with low lying roofs help to break up the buildings form. Working with the existing parameters and layered approach, has resulted in a modern home that rests comfortably between neighbouring high and low properties on a cliff top site.
