Located on an elevated and sloping site this design consists of facades clad with horizontal cedar weather boards with profiled metal roofing to create contrast. The upside down living makes the best of the rural Raglan views. The design contains a lift to aid with the retirement stage of the occupants in a few years to come, a large elevated deck for great entertaining, an internal bridge connecting the master bedroom with the kitchen for an early morning cuppa in bed, a pool, a rumpus for the kids and grand kids to come and even a space to create some amazing home brew!

DF Design Sustainable Architecture is a Raglan based architectural design practice with projects in the greater Hamilton area, the Coromandel Peninsula, Raglan, Christchurch and Queenstown. We are a team of experienced and passionate designers with a wide range of skills in the residential and commercial sector.

We listen to fully understand your dream and vision. We focus on eliminating unnecessary complexity in the design to create elegantly simple yet practical and functional architecture.

Being trained in Germany, Daniel fully understands building physics and utilizes over 35 years of proven European design principles, innovation and technology.

We strongly believe that practicing good communication and working with experienced people is essential for the successful outcome of any project. All our current team members have gained extensive ‘hands on’ building experience and qualifications prior to furthering their careers in design and architecture. This enables us to have a unique foresight that lead to better design decisions and highly detailed drawings.

We pay our respects to the elders past and present. We commit to working together to build a prosperous and inclusive Australia.
