Coromandel Bach House by Crosson Clarke Carnachan Architects
Coromandel Bach house located in Coromandel, New Zealand has beeb designed by Crosson Clarke Carnachan Architects.The house was conceived as a container sitting lightly on the land for habitation or the dream of habitation. A simple mechanism opens the “box” on arrival, providing a stage for living – and closes down on departure, providing protection.

The intention was to reinterpret the New Zealand building tradition – the crafting of wood – the expression of structure, cladding, lining and joinery in a raw and unique way. The construction is reminiscent of the “trip” or “rafter” dams common in the Coromandel region at the turn of last century. Heavy vertical structural members supporting horizontal boarding.
