Contemporary residence in Shotover Valley, completed in 2007, harmoniously blending traditional architectural elements with modern functionality, featuring a sunny courtyard and versatile spaces for both communal gatherings and private retreats.

Perched on the edge of the Shotover Valley, this house takes traditional architectural lines and materials and explores them with contemporary purpose and detailing. The house nestles quietly into the surrounding landscape, without compromising connection to spectacular views and sun. Interior spaces have been planned and connected with grown-up and extended family in mind: there are opportunities for communal gathering as well as private retreat, in spaces designed for multiple functions and uses.

The house was designed around a sheltered, sunny courtyard, allowing views and connection to the landscape from every space. The house was planned with grown-up and extended family in mind, and works beautifully for large family gatherings as well as private retreat.

“Four Walls Architecture is an excellent architecture firm. Claire and Amy designed our home’s new extension and renovation of the remaining portion of the house. They were fantastic to deal with, had great ideas, and were available and communicative throughout the entire design and build process. We are delighted with the final outcome and we would highly recommend Claire, Amy and the firm”
