The Coast House
Located at the vibrant The Coast subdivision within Papamoa Beach, surrounded by amenities and a short walk from the beach, this house is a testament to what is possible in a very narrow section, with a very modest budget.
The facade blends urbane and coastal: a low mono-pitch roof and vertical weatherboards nod to the bach vernacular, popular in the area; the high-contrast material palette - dark timber and crispy white plaster system ground the building in its time, nodding to the lively urban context.
The program is pragmatic: two bedrooms, open living and making the most of the sun within the compact section. The spatial planning plays on the sites' nature by organising functions along a singular hallway, where large windows engage with the morning sun and the dense landscaping, designed both for visual appeal and privacy from neighbours.
Completed in 2018.
