Rangitopuni Residence

This new home in Riverhead sits on the bank of the Rangitopuni Stream, looking out over the water and native riparian bush. The client’s brief was to build a new three bedroom home on a vacant site, featuring a living wing with a focus on the views across the stream and indoor/outdoor living. Towards the north, staggered box forms sit low across the site, stepped back and down from street level. A family room and patio face out to the road, taking advantage of northern light and providing opportunity to connect with the neighbourhood. Photography by Mark Scowen
