Ridgeline - Residential Home - in progress.

‍

The sites natural setting provided both constraints and opportunities that directly drove the design brief and final outcome. The strong view lines to the Southern Ocean and Port hills needed to be carefully integrated. 

The form of the roof and deck are taken from the topography of the site where both horizontal and vertical relationships where taken into account to provide a building form that sweeps down to meet the landscape of the Port Hills while opening up to the north as it moved forward to Southern Ocean.  The sweeping roof form and the curved pods combine to create ‘sheltered’ and ‘open’ spaces to live amongst.
