The Lookout was designed for a rare kind of site.
Expansive views, dramatic landscape, and complete immersion in the surrounding environment demanded an architectural response that felt connected to place.

Long, grounded forms follow the contours of the land, while carefully framed glazing captures shifting light, distant horizons, and the changing coastal weather. Materiality was selected to age gracefully within the landscape, creating a home that feels timeless.

Spaces unfold slowly and intentionally, balancing privacy, shelter, and openness at every turn. The result is a home that feels calm, elevated, and loved.

Architecture designed not just for living, but for belonging.

We’re excited to see Pop Up Book featured in this month’s

A project shaped by unfolding spaces, layered light and moments of surprise, this home was designed to feel playful yet grounded. Like its name suggests, each space reveals itself gradually, opening and compressing as you move through the house.

Seeing the project captured on paper feels especially fitting for a home inspired by storytelling, sequence and discovery.

Thank you to the team at Homestyle Magazine for featuring the project alongside so many beautiful homes and interiors.

A new city house designed for a tightly held Auckland suburb, currently in Resource Consent stage.

The home balances elegance and restraint through a grounded material palette of stone cladding to the lower level and dark metal cladding above, creating a timeless silhouette that settles naturally into its dense urban setting.

Carefully shaped around two courtyards, the house opens and shifts with the sun throughout the day, allowing light, warmth and connection to move through every level of the home.

A considered response to city living, where privacy, sun and outdoor connection become the architecture itself.

This new house designed by Rogan Nash architects is centred around privacy and connection. Wrapped around a century-old pōhutukawa, the architecture creates a quiet world of its own where family life unfolds around a sheltered courtyard, sunlit interiors and spaces designed to stay connected.

Dark, moody materials give way to warm walnut, textured stone and pockets of unexpected colour. From the kitchen, conversations drift easily between the lounge, lawn and outdoor dining space. Every room feels linked, yet private.

Designed as a sanctuary for modern family life, this city house holds people close while creating moments of calm within the rhythm of Auckland living. 🌿

This concept design for a new house in Remuera, is shaped around sun, space, and slow evenings by the pool.

At dusk, the house begins to glow. Warm light spills through the cedar and aluminum screens and across the water, softening the strong linear form and giving the home a quiet sense of calm against the fading sky.

Designed to open completely to the north, the living spaces flow seamlessly to the pool terrace - a private retreat wrapped in natural cedar, black metal and layered landscaping. From the street, composed and restrained; from within, warm, luminous and connected to outdoor living.

Perched above the rugged Waiheke coastline, Open + Shut is designed to feel grounded in the landscape 🌿

Dark timber cladding and sliding screens allow the house to shift with the island’s changing light and weather, opening wide to sea breezes and long summer evenings, then retreating into shelter and warmth when the wind rolls in.

There’s something distinctly Waiheke about living this way, connected to the elements, slower in rhythm, always tuned to the landscape.

A home designed as a retreat from city pace. 🖤

Perched quietly within the landscape of Rotorua's Lake Okareka, Owl’s Retreat House settles into its surroundings with a sense of calm permanence. Dark, textural materials anchor the home to the earth, while expansive glazing opens every room to shifting light, long views, and the rhythm of the seasons.

Outside, the house stretches gently across the site, framing sheltered outdoor spaces and moments of connection to the landscape at every turn. Inside, warm natural finishes and soft light create an atmosphere that feels both grounded and restorative, a retreat designed for slowing down, gathering together, and watching the landscape change from dawn through to dusk. 🌿

As the light shifts across the Matakana hills, this concept design settles into the landscape in different ways throughout the day. At dusk, the dark metal cladding softens into the horizon, while the long low form draws a quiet line across the ridgeline.

Designed as two connected pavilions, the living spaces and bedroom wing are separated by a sheltered courtyard that captures light, breeze and views in every direction. A new home designed for slow evenings, long summers by the pool, and the ever-changing rural landscape that surrounds it.

Perched above the landscape in Port Waikato, 'The Lookout' is shaped by its setting.
A new house designed to slow down and take in the shifting light, long views, and changing weather rolling across the site.

The architecture opens carefully to the horizon, framing moments of sea, sky, and native planting, while grounding itself into the contours of the land. Timber, stone, and shadowy forms sit quietly against the landscape rather than competing with it.

A home that feels connected to place at every turn 🌿

Concept design for a new home in Remuera - a long, linear form with a confident street presence.

Natural-toned cedar and black metal are layered with fine slatted screens, softening the façade while creating privacy from the street. Light filters through in shifting bands, bringing a quiet sense of movement to the exterior and beyond.

Inside, a generous five-bedroom home unfolds to the north. The kitchen and living spaces open seamlessly to a pool that captures sunlight all day - a warm, open heart at the centre of the plan.

A composition of contrast and control: warm and dark, solid and permeable, light and shadow. A house that holds its ground on the street, while opening effortlessly to the sun.

Same-same, but different.

This Westmere project is as much about the spaces between as the built form itself - traditional timber weatherboards grounding the home in its bungalow heritage, while a new courtyard creates a quiet outdoor room at its heart.

The privacy screen filters sun and shadow through the day, bringing softness, shelter and a beautiful rhythm of light to the courtyard.

We love how the old and new sit together here - familiar materials, carefully reworked, with the courtyard becoming the calm centre of the home.

Heritage bones. Filtered light. Outdoor living, reimagined.
