This American-style barn home in Oropi was a year-long design and build journey that brought together craftsmanship, natural materials, and local character.

Built from the ground up, every detail reflects a commitment to authenticity — from reclaimed brick features to locally sourced cedar from the Bay of Plenty. The structure combines Kiwi practicality with timeless barn aesthetics, creating a warm and functional family home that feels right at home in the rural landscape.

Working closely with the clients throughout the process, we refined the design on site to ensure every space worked just as well as it looked. The result is a home that feels handcrafted, connected to its surroundings, and built to last.
