This house was a result of rebuilding of the Government Architect John Campbel house. There was many obstacle in this design. The site was tight and relatively steep, the combined properties could not exceed the 50% inner residential site coverage and the new house was required to fit within all sunlight recession planes.
The resultant dwelling fully utilizes its site. Space for the bedrooms and garaging was excavated below, forming a base to the lighter living spaces above. The roof is clad in zinc and is cut and folded cleanly to focus views out to the harbour and diagonally to the trees, while at the same time providing a sense of enclosure and privacy.
Location : Salamanca, New Zealand

We always choose metal roofing instead of ceramic roofing because we believe that metal roofs last longer.;’-
