Monk Mackenzie, Auckland - Waiatarua House
Three stained cedar boxes and sit on a steep sloping site in the city's Waiatarua nature reserve, while a gridded plywood screen with angled surfaces allows light to filter into the interior.
Andrew Patterson - Annandale Farm on Banks Peninsula
A small home away from home in Canterbury - denoting a cave. A thoughtful combination of macrocarpa acoustic panels on the ceiling, the rich warm texture of the stone, and the golden grasses outside combined with brutal concrete creates a dramatic and warm experience.
The home was designed around two key axes, one aligning itself towards the view of the headland, and the other along the beach.

Piercy & Company
Conversion of a 19th century red brick stables building into a family home. Corten steel shells were placed over the facade with perforated holes creating dappled light throughout the day.
A bridge encase by glass connects the home's two volumes.
