Terrace Gable
Invercargill, Southland
Located in Rosedale, Invercargill, this home is defined by a series of gabled forms that create a composed and confident street presence. A central two-storey volume anchors the design, with lower adjoining forms stepping out to either side to mediate scale and frame the entry. The plan balances openness and privacy, with living spaces connecting seamlessly to outdoor areas. Generous glazing brings natural light deep into the home, while a vertical timber screen at the entry filters light and maintains privacy, adding depth and texture to the façade. A restrained palette of timber and plastered surfaces grounds the architecture within its suburban context. The result is a home that brings together clarity of form, warmth of material, and a considered response to scale and setting.
