Lake Wakatipu, Queenstown. 

This was an addition/alteration project right on the edge of the lake. 

My concept was to re-wrap the house, working on the original form and footprint. The brief included work space for art and a private gallery. The existing garage was re-clad with a different form to match the new entry, office, and living room addition. The ground floor concrete masonry block was clad with Basalt strips of varying heights to ground the building.
