In 2006, Salmond Reed Architects were appointed to prepare the specification and manage a repair and maintenance project during 2007. This included external redecoration, conservation of masonry and cast iron and the upgrading of bird-proofing.

The repair works involved specialist techniques and materials, including the repair of cast iron rainwater pipes, use of lime mortar for pointing and stone repair, and the design of a new innovative, humane bird-proofing system.

Our client’s brief was to design a three-bedroom home on their 47 ha Northland site showcasing the magnificent views of rolling farmland, protected bush and the expansive ocean encompassing Waipu Cove, the Hen and Chickens and Sail Rock.

A private sanctuary offering guests luxury accommodation is designed to capture breathtaking views of the Waitemata Harbour. This new build in one of Auckland's special character suburbs employed traditional gable forms and cedar weatherboard cladding to sit comfortably alongside neighbouring heritage homes.
