Blanks House / Bonnifait + Giesen Architects
Overlooking the Akaroa Harbour, this compact house stretches from the dense bush capturing a framed view from the bay and beyond. A generous double high space filled with direct sunlight opens largely onto a sheltered deck, extending the living area. Contrastingly, the 2 bedrooms, tucked into the bush offer a retreat from the open environment and expansive landscape.
