Collaboration and Craft

Congratulations to the entire team of builders, trades, and engineers for their outstanding craft and dedication in bringing this home to life. Their precision and care are evident in every line, junction, and finish — the result of genuine collaboration and shared intent. Our sincere thanks also to the clients, whose trust and vision made this project such an enjoyable and rewarding process.

Light, Material and Form

Terrace 12C is a layered, light-filled home on a compact 340 sqm site in Mount Maunganui, Tauranga. Terraced and cantilevered forms shape space, create privacy, and draw the sun deep into the interior. A restrained palette of plaster, cedar, oak, and soft linen grounds the home in calm simplicity. Behind its quiet composition, the architecture balances innovation and practicality — with a concealed guest suite, solar power, and a resilient, well-insulated envelope.
