In terms of the floor plan, provision is made for the homeowners to entertain extended family for holidays, as well as to encompass their everyday needs on a smaller scale when required. This includes two living spaces that flow through to the central kitchen, with timber wall linings and cabinetry lending a modern country lodge feel. For his part in the home’s success, roofer Hartmut Reichelt of Construction Connection & Consultancy Ltd was awarded COLORSTEEL® Tray Roofer of the Year. “Hartmut was just a perfect fit from the get-go,” says Erin. “The perfection he achieved on the project was beautiful, it's like a piece of joinery on the outside.”
Kanuka Residence was a clear standout to COLORSTEEL® Awards judge, architect Ken Crosson, who commented that the home is “a beautifully crafted space and a beautifully crafted, technically competent building as well. The quality of the workmanship sat really nicely against the quality of the architecture.”
