Rural Home of the Year 2021: Hill to Horizon House

In a setting of champagne golds and pastel purples, this Otama Beach house unfolds between retired paddock and pristine Coromandel coastline.

Traversing rural paddock and an idyllic setting synonymous with coastal New Zealand, this is a special place, and the home that now stands among a handful of other baches is a thing of beauty.

Its face is turned to the sun: its profile exists both to provide shelter and to direct the onlooker’s gaze, and its interior is shaped by a convergence of spaces and moments, each gracefully interacting with the other. As architect Jeremy Brick describes it, this is a home of “red carpet and stilettos and the two-piece tracksuit and blanket, depending on where you are — it spans the realms of public and private as you move through it”.
