Dashwood

Designing an off-grid single level family home atop a farm hill, with views from the living and master bedroom spaces to the Cook Straight and Marlborough sounds was a big part of the conversation when we met our clients on a farm hill in Seddon.

This ‘L’ shape home wraps around a central pool with bedrooms, bathrooms and laundry spaces separated from the main living space & master bedroom suite where the owners will primarily spend their lives. Four spacious rooms were created for the overflow of family coming to stay, separated with a split level.

The dwelling is orientated on site to maximise the stunning views and sunlight, with plenty of kodak moments with sunrise and sunsets visible from the the living areas and bedrooms.

The home has been designed with solar and water collection, a modern wood fireplace provide ducted heating to the bedrooms and master-suite, as well as providing heating to the main living space. With large external walls and mechanical ventilation - this throughout the spaces, this home is designed for low energy use.

Renovation
Modal was very punctual, and spot on with discussing drawings ideas that I had, They took all the pain away from my major house rennovations which many others were scaring me just to start with. They were very good, and efficient, doing great work including dealing with council papers and needs. I highly recommend Modal Architecture - They're great Wellingtonians!

Residential Extension
Modal’s work, timing and communication is spot on. From concept to detailed design through to consent they kept me involved and informed. Modal kept ahead of schedule. I'm really happy with the designs and the additions they made. They managed the consent process which went smoothly and are a team of relaxed but very professional individuals.
