Remuera House

The design is defined by two solid brick masses linked by a recessed glazed spine, creating a clear contrast between weight and lightness. An asymmetrical roofline and geometric forms give the home a sculptural modern presence within its Remuera neighbourhood. Across three levels, the layout includes six bedrooms, generous living areas, and recreational zones such as a gym, theatre, rumpus level, and pool. Outdoor entertaining spaces open from the main living areas, supporting large family gatherings while preserving privacy for individual household members. A lift improves accessibility and supports long-term living. Material choices focus on durability and low maintenance. Cream brick and aluminium form a clean, robust exterior, while a curved staircase finished with veneered oak and rounded balustrades introduces warmth and craftsmanship to the interior. A hybrid structure of concrete, steel, and timber supports the home’s dramatic geometry and multilevel arrangement. Careful coordination of structure, form, and materials creates a confident and expressive residence suited to an extended family while maintaining a strong architectural identity.
