Parnell House, Auckland

Spread over two sites this large inner city garden looked to create a functional yet elegant setting for the existing arts and crafts style house.

A key aspect of the design was circulation, both for vehicles (as there are two separate garages) and to accommodate people moving between the different buildings and garden areas.

We purposefully removed tall planting from around the house to let the building breathe.

Completed 2022.
