Hillend House

This project was undertaken for an overseas client building their family home in Wanaka. The result is a tribute to the project team and designers, it sits on the site as if it has always been there, with materials that tie to their surroundings. The timber windows provide a high level of thermal performance, which in Wanaka’s alpine environment will work with the thermal mass to create a stable and warm climate for the client and their family for generations to come.

THE BRIEF
The design brief included imagery of traditional construction in Central Otago, including exposed trusses, stacked stone, and timber lintels. LJT produced the timber windows, as well as the internal joinery for the wardrobes, bathrooms, laundry and kitchen. Each item was carefully considered to tie into the timeless, enduring aesthetic that the client had selected.
