Lombardia Way, Karaka
By Faulkner Construction
This contemporary family home has been designed to maximise the connection of an elongated living space to a lush northern garden while retaining a real sense of privacy from surrounding neighbours.
To this end the open plan ground floor reads as a glazed conservatory space nestled under a dark cedar container, a suspended black box providing a dynamic retreat for the three main bedrooms. The light filled heart of the home is connected vertically through twin voids highlighting the spacious character of the home. The garage, guest quarters and services are secured in a black color-steel box to the south of the site.
"Exposed materials connect the home with its environment and express our true kiwi values, the desire to be outdoors enjoying the rich natural elements, water, stone, sunshine and sky.
"The opportunity to work with one of Auckland's leading builders has been a privilege and we are proud to have our name on this conceptually strong and beautifully crafted home."

About the
Professional
Faulkner Construction has been in the business of building dream homes for more than 40 years and has earned a reputation for being one of the best.
A regular Gold Award winner in Auckland and nationally in the "House of The Year" competition.
Faulkner Construction is a family business with a history of success. Ross still gets great satisfaction in taking clients' dream homes from paper to reality. It's not just the physical challenge of the build that Ross enjoys, it's the whole experience. Getting to know people, listening to what they want and don't want, understanding their style of living, and how their family will live out their lives in that home. The ultimate success is delivering this to them.
Quality is Mantra
Quality is the mantra at Faulkner Construction. We view each home we build as if it was our own.
Ross has a very critical eye for quality and will not accept anything that compromises a quality finish. It's not just the quality of the build that Faulkner Construction take pride in, it's also the quality of their conduct on site. Clients tell us how much they like and enjoy the Faulkner guys working on their homes - how punctual they are, how friendly and tidy they are, and how they are basically a joy to have around.
