The best of summer living

Located in Glenbrook, Auckland, the site enjoy views of the Waiuku River to the South and the Taihiki River to the North. The building form, the materiality and the openness to the streetscape nod to the local vernacular, where the front porch is a recurrent feature - here reinterpreted to strike a balance between privacy whilst engaging the street and passers-by. The dissolution of the boundaries between indoors and outdoors and the introduction of pockets of seating throughout the living spaces provides ample opportunities for interaction and different ways of inhabiting space.
