This farmhouse sited on a windswept hill overlooking a dairy farm, North Island of New Zealand. This house have beautiful view of farm with Whangarei Heads and the Hen and Chicks Islands view. The design responds to this as three separate blocks for sleeping, living and working. The blocks are linked by a concrete spine that runs the length of the house and conceptually braces it from the howling westerly winds. The gaps between the blocks form sheltered courtyards. The spine’s other purpose is separating the open sloping roofed pavilion front from the closed back, which forms the entry area and arrival court. The contemporary beautiful North Island farmhouse designed by Studio John Irving.
