Location: Mt Maunganui

Key Design Features: This major alteration began with a nondescript 80’s plaster duplex, which was striped back to its concrete base, and rebuilt to maximize the floor plates, outdoor connections, and create generous glazing to draw in the panorama of the Omanu coast line. The expansive views are captured deep into the floor plan through the concept of “inviting the outside in”. This concept encapsulates Carnachan Architecture’s approach and at Surf Road these informed design decisions ranging from space planning to façade design, landscaping, lighting, window configuration and shading details.

Key Building Features: The building is framed in steel, and clad in concrete, plaster and timber.

Status: Under construction.
