Karori House : Wellington Residential Development, New Zealand

Karori House STEWART DICKENS HOUSE Karori House I Architects: HERRIOT + MELHUISH: ARCHITECTURE LTD Location: 6 Burn Street, Karori, Wellington, New Zealand Photos : Paul McCredie PROJECT DESCRIPTION This comprehensive house alteration was in response to the clients' growing need for space and a desire to reverse an existing plan that was contrary to the site conditions. Retaining only the subfloor structure, the ground floor was re-planned to bring sun, light and views into the living areas. The new upper level provided the additional space for 2 bedrooms, a bathroom and storage. The simple composition of 3 white intersecting timber boxes was, in part a response to the environmental conditions and height planes; but more specifically a reference to the New Zealand modern movement houses of the 50's and 60's.
