Designed by Archimetrix, a Christchurch-based consultancy, this new house is positioned to maximise a spectacular view. Because the owner is retired and required a level access, a driveway sweeps down to a garage beside the front door. The folded roof form that wraps down the front and side of the house was both a distinctive and cost-effective cladding solution. In contrast to the original 50s house on site, the new home provides views from the kitchen-living area and bedrooms.
