New Zealand Homes That Embrace the Landscape
With an incredible landscape that stretches throughout the country, these New Zealand architects design around the scenic coastlines and mountain slopes.
Fed up with flashy, environmentally insensitive beach homes, architect Gerald Parsonson and his wife, Kate, designed a humble hideaway nestled behind sand dunes along the New Zealand coastline. Crafted in the image of a modest Kiwi bach, their 1,670-square-foot retreat consists of a group of small buildings clad in black-stained pine weatherboards and fiber-cement sheets.
