Waiheke Island

This generous five-bedroom home sites on a magical 2-hectre Waiheke Island site with sweeping views out over the Hauraki Gulf. All spaces are arranged to enjoy the views out to the various gulf islands, or back to the lights of Auckland City in the distance. Multiple accesses to various decks provide flow to outdoor areas from which to appreciate the vistas.

A single roof-plane drapes over the spaces below at a pitch which matches the slope of the land. Along with stepping the house down the site, this roof-form ensures the bulk of the home remains lower than the ridgeline behind allowing the dwelling to nestle seamlessly into the land.
