The client approached us to design new residential dwelling on a vacant site in Palmerston North. The client’s chosen aesthetic was a mid-century Palm Springs/Californian style with a focus on strong horizontal design elements and grounded forms.
-
The designed floor plan has a ‘U’ shaped configuration to provide an interior/exterior covered courtyard that is accessed from the second lounge. The client wanted to make the most of the neighbouring bush reserve, so windows and decks are located on the reserve side of the dwelling.
The selected cladding is a mixture of low maintenance materials including rough cast insitu concrete and larch shiplap weatherboards.
