Te puna house (Renovation)

This rural renovation transforms an existing house into a warm, contemporary home that better reflects the lifestyle of its owners and the surrounding landscape. The design carefully reworks the original structure, improving spatial flow while introducing a more cohesive architectural language.

Living spaces have been opened up to maximise natural light and create a stronger connection to the outdoors. A restrained material palette and simple forms respond to the rural setting, giving the home a calm and grounded presence within the landscape.

The result is a refreshed rural home that balances modern living with the character of the original house, creating a comfortable and practical environment for everyday life.
