MATAKANA COAST PROJECT
OUR PARTNER IN NEW ZEALAND SARSFIELD BROOKE LTD. TOGETHER WITH ARCHITECT BELINDA GEORGE AND THE COMPANY SERENE PROJECTS, HAS REALISED AN EXTRAORDINARY PROJECT. ON THE EDGE OF THE MAKATANA REGION, OVERLOOKING OMAHA BAY, STANDS A HOUSE THAT EMBODIES THE SIMPLE ARCHITECTURE THAT HAS BECOME SYNONYMOUS WITH PROPERTIES ON RUGGED COASTLINES - WITH A FAÇADE THAT WEARS OVER TIME. WHAT MAKES IT SPECIAL IS THE FLUID TRANSITION FROM INDOORS TO OUTDOORS. THE PHOTOGRAPHY IS BY DUNCAN INNES.
