Above, a frameless skylight offers clear views of the sky, deepening the home’s bond with nature. Head to the link in bio to watch Gully House by Andrew Burges Architects on

Video Feature • Descending from the street to the water’s edge, Cove by @koichitakadaarchitects is a study in architectural restraint and sensory immersion. From its modest single-storey threshold to its cascading voids and river-framed views, the home unfolds in quiet grandeur. Guided by Japanese sensibilities, materiality is celebrated through bleached timbers, veined marble and sandstone. The result is a dwelling that slows time and deepens a connection to place.

The site was chosen partly for its remoteness – which brings nature to the forefront – and partly for its tie to Rob Mills, owner of the lodge.

Issue No. 17 Feature • Video Feature • The @fisherpaykel Series • The owners of Chaucer Residence by @pohioadams had a clear vision for a courtyard-style house that presented discreetly to the street and unfolded spectacularly at the rear. Counting Pierre Chareau’s Maison de Verre and Ludwig Mies van der Rohe’s Barcelona Pavilion as key references, the ambitious concept was further complicated by the site’s compact size, heritage-protected facade and narrow rear laneway.
