Under Pohutukawa

2011 NZIA Jury Citation:

“This bach is nestled exquisitely under and around a dense Pohutukawa grove near the beach.

The architecture takes inspiration and form from the trees, yet is self assured and confident within such a rich environment.

Beautifully detailed, using the finest materials, this is an open and relaxed pavilion that encourages its inhabitants to dwell luxuriously beneath the canopy.”
