19th century: Building a better Britain

Cottage, Sydenham, ChristchurchVilla, Royal Oak, Auckland

Houses from this period are divided into cottages and villas. The first houses built in New Zealand were cottages.^[20] Villas were the larger and more expensively built equivalent. The typical villa has the kitchen to the rear of the house and separate from the dining room, as food preparation was meant to occur out of sight.^[21]

What is service lane meaning?Service roads, or frontage roads, run parallel to a main road and allow local traffic to gain access to property

More Inspo:

“In one corner there is a fireplace; it’s really just a memory of a one. Cook’s feet face towards that fire. It’s as if he’s warming his feet, but his gaze and mind are somewhere else.

“The coloured light implies the notion of ahi kā; the idea that the home fires are burning and the lights are still on,” says Michael Parekowha

“Together with the work’s location on Auckland’s busy harbor, the net impact of The Lighthouse‘s design is a commentary on the impact of discovery and colonialism on New Zealand sovereignty and society. The most spectacular ways to consider the project’s impact is from the water, after dark.”
