"This is a building so infused with love and sociability that it hits you like a dense cloak. The house comprises a beautiful and magical series of spaces with materials and colours attuned to differing functions but woven into a true home and unified whole. This house is an exemplar of relaxed Kiwi living, assembled by an exceptionally skilled architect."
