Hotere

This home in Rangiora pairs bold gabled forms with a simple black-and-white palette to create a clean, confident street presence. The recessed entry sits between the main house and garage, giving the frontage a balanced feel while creating a clear and welcoming arrival. Inside, the open-plan kitchen and living spaces are light, relaxed and easy to live in, with warm timber finishes softening the crisp exterior aesthetic. Large openings connect the main living area directly to a sheltered outdoor room, creating another space to gather and making indoor-outdoor living feel effortless. The result is a modern family home that feels considered without being overdone, practical, comfortable and full of small details that give it its own identity.
