MODO Architects win at NZIA Awards.

It was nice to catch up with clients and builder at the recent NZIA awards in Nelson. Tasman View house was one of five new houses to receive an NZIA design award.

In announcing the awards the judging panel said, “Coming ashore after years on a yacht, the owners have been compensated with a new home that floats on the landscape like a carefully crafted vessel, aligned and conditioned to cope with the elements.”

“Sliding screens regulate sun and wind, delivering afternoon shade and framing views within the expansive outlook. Within a rich enclosure of warm wood finishes, planning is efficient with everything given its place.”
