Two families saw a chance to build new memories on an old bach site in Golden Bay, with this outstanding holiday home from Karsten Architectural Design and Golden Bay Builders.
All in Kitchen
Less is more
More and more of us are choosing to build small. Gregg Architectural Builders shows how to create joy in the small and functional with this unique home on the hills of Christchurch.
Cheerfully delightful
Despite the challenge of eight neighbouring properties, this beautiful home was skilfully delivered by Simplexity Builders, bringing smiles all-round.
Naturally narrow
Quietly positioned close to the Avon River, this dazzlingly unique home from South Architects and John Garlick Builders is a fine example of how a narrow site never needs to be a hindrance to beauty.
So far, so perfect
This spacious and refined home designed by Lee Johnstone and built by Wayne Murray Builders achieves an inspirational balance between clean, modern lines and timeless, natural elegance.
A resounding yes
The brief was for a home set up for effortless entertaining and easy family living. Sinclair Builders exceeded expectations and picked up a prized award along the way.
Past, present and future
Sharp, architectural forms are deftly woven into the backdrop of rural greenery and peacefulness in this exceptional home by Studio 4 Architects and Jim Reed Builders.
A room with a view
Designed by Johnston Architects and faultlessly executed by DJ Hewitt Builders, this innovative renovation captures stunning coastal views with a refreshing take on outdoor living.
360-degree vision
A flash of inspiration while travelling in Canterbury led to a move south and a collaboration with Craig Brown Construction to create this impressive new home taking in panoramic mountain views from their beloved Mt Hutt to the Port Hills.
A home from home
From an earthquake damaged home to a beautiful new Jennian Home – the homeowners and builders of this riverside residence have created a home that is built to last.
New horizons
Just a stone’s throw from the lake and town of Wānaka sits this exquisite forever family home, immaculately built by SMBC Architectural Builders.
Delight in the details
The new home of Jack and Tash Kelleher of John Ross Architectural Builders doubles as the company show home, balancing an ultra-modern aesthetic with a hint of 1970s style and finished to the exceptional standard the company is renowned for.
A landscape for living
With vistas to the Southern Alps, parklands, streams and lakes, this characterful contemporary home from Metzger Builders enjoys a rural setting in Clearwater, just minutes from central Christchurch.
Kitchen layout, made easy
A kitchen today is used for so much more than just cooking. Getting the right design is crucial, and Hettich has all the answers.
Lakeside sanctuary
For one young Wānaka family, their dream of a sustainable home built for views and light was brought to life by Eliška Lewis Architects and Dunlop Builders.
A place to be together
For three generations of a family, this thoughtfully designed holiday home, by Stufkens and Chambers Architects, ticked all the boxes with its clever use of space.
The great escape
Interior designer Lisa Storer’s modern farmhouse outside Johannesburg blends rustic warmth with industrial simplicity to create a happy home for her family.
Family retreat
The owners of this spacious family sanctuary by Signature Homes set out to create a relaxed holiday feel, and the stunning results have more than exceeded their expectations.
Better than ever
The dream of a relaxed, hillside lifestyle led to this outstanding transformation in Cashmere, from an unassuming 1990s plaster home to this sleek cedar-clad renovation from DJ Hewitt Builders.
The big picture
Beauty and sustainability combine in this award-winning home on the banks of the Wairarapa stream in Merivale, the pride of a 40-year career for its owners from Home Trends Builders.
