Piako House involved the complete renovation and extension of a small existing house in Hamilton’s Claudelands special character area. The original house dated from the 1940s and was clad in Huntly bricks, which is typical of houses of the era.
The owners had recently purchased the house and required a complete reconfiguration of the internal spaces along with the addition of new living and study spaces to accommodate their young family. The renovation maintains the home’s original character, including the intimate scale of interior spaces. The addition is designed as a distinct form to the original house, but maintains a connection through scale, texture and colour of the random width and depth vertical cedar cladding. The original Matai and Rimu timber flooring is maintained throughout with polished concrete used in the new living space.
