AI summary
A Wānaka holiday home designed by architect Rafe Maclean takes its inspiration from a classic DoC hut. Built on a challenging triangular site, the compact 65sqm house serves as an outdoor adventure base for the owners' family.
The design features green corrugated cladding, a warm timber interior, and a bunkroom. Despite its small footprint, the highly-insulated home feels spacious and future-proofs the site for a second dwelling, successfully creating a relaxed and functional family retreat.
