lake hayes cottage
‘The additions to a two-storey cottage nestled into large trees have been expertly handled to enhance the existing building and make the most of the site’s natural advantages. The management of the proportional relationship between the two forms is masterful, as is the treatment of such project elements as the spanning of a watercourse, the overhang on the addition, and the white slatted screens that serve to tie the buildings together. The cottage is both evocative of another time and ideal for contemporary occupation.’ NZIA
