S House
Situated on a narrow site in the western Waitakere Ranges of Auckland, the house lifts out of the contours of a sloping site to take advantage of maximum sun and views across the Manukau Harbour. The simplicity of an economical form was a key to the build programme, as well as maximising the all-weather climate modifier space for play and entertaining in the bush surrounds.
