Inspired by California’s mid-century modern architecture movement, this contemporary Katikati

home employs clean lines, light airy volumes and extensive glazing. 

 

A high level of technical skill was required in the realisation of this striking home.

Cedar cladding and concrete floors both feature prominently.

Timber-grain, in situ board-form concrete walls marry these materials perfectly.

Further key features of this one-level, 284sqm design include an ultra-modern entertainer’s kitchen,

underfloor central heating, recessed blinds and a secret bathroom window.

​

Utilising the site’s northfacing perspective, the home delivers full east-to-west living spaces and vistas.

While the entry enjoys an air of mystery, the kitchen/dining/living area opens its heart to the outdoors.

Huge stacker sliders ease the transition between refined interiors and extensive decking.

Back inside, a snug library allows a casual alternative to the more formal and sophisticated living domain.
