Mountain Retreat Heavily Rendered Stone by Fearon Hay Architects

Mountain Retreat Heavily Rendered Stone by Fearon Hay Architects
The mountain retreat is a small structure which is situated high above the ground and facing shores of Lake Wakatipu in New Zealand. Its design is inspired by beautiful landscape views around. Floor-to-ceiling insulated windows in steel frames and roof terrace are things that enhance the ability to see picture-like mountains. The exterior of the building uses the heavily rendered stone to express a cubic form and integrate it into surround landscape.
A main sleeping space opens over the living space and is serviced by a centrally located bathroom. Heating set within the insulated floor slab provides additional comfort when required in the extremes of winter. The house gets the filtered water from a nearby mountain stream. Bottled gas is one of the main energy sources, although there is also electrical power provided. [Fearon Hay Architects]

Single Storey Black & White House – Whitford House by Sumich Architects
The Whitford House is located on a 2 hectare lot overlooking the Mangemangeroa Creek Inlet. It consists of series of connected pavilions on a single level. The pavilions took the form of the simple gable and were linked by flat roof structures progressing through to the main gable form housing the kitchen/dining/family areas with the pool platform beyond. There are a lot of natural house in the house thanks to large glazing. Entry is gained through a formally landscaped courtyard that acts as a buffer from the surrounding countryside. Thanks to pavilion’s structure there are several more courtyards around the house that have different purpose and views. Materials that was used during the house’s construction are plaster cladding, aluminum joinery and tray roofing, all finished in a ‘black & white’ composition to sit simply against a green country backdrop.
