Rook Hill Superhome

Location: Friars Cliff, Christchurch

Client: Private

Type: Completed, Residential, New build, Superhome

Description: LMA Architects were appointed to design a replacement new build detached house. The clients brief required a new modern family home with large open plan areas with lots of natural daylight to flood internal spaces. Our design principle was to provide a contemporary design using a traditional form but using modern detailing. The impression of floating glazed gables balanced on a solid natural stone base give an alternative impression of the traditional house form.

Planning consent was granted in January 2018, detailed design and working drawings are underway. Construction was complete in November 2021 with LMA providing a full service from conception through to completion.
