Discerning Appeal

Smith Construction NZ

This exciting new build in coastal Northland has mastered its ocean and rural views without compromising on shelter or character.

Located on Bream Tail Farm at Mangawhai Heads and built by Smith Construction, the clients sought a low profile contemporary home with sharp angles and clean lines.

Notable design features include enormous glazed window panes to endure the coastal environment and also showcase the breathtaking scenery.

 

 

Dual chimney stacks have been clad in exterior tiles, with meticulous blockwork by local company DC Bricklayers.

The chimney tops are also craftmanship in themselves, thanks to Gas Works & Plumbing that that nailed the desired squared finish. 

The exterior fascia itself is also work of art. Aluminium composite panels provide a seamless, sleek vibe, juxtaposed against the pale chimneys and cedar cladding. 

The team from Arcwell Engineering completed the structural steelwork which allowed the interior to feel so inviting, vast and open. 

 

 

Liberal use of interior timber is a nod to the mid-century theme. The vertical fins have also been left natural as they exude warmth and show the colour variation in the grain. 

Crafted in sleek steel is a bespoke kitchen by IMO Kitchens. The black cabinetry gives a refined, timeless aesthetic, amped-up a notch by a stunning porcelain splashback.
