Hawks Nest
Hawks Nest
Forest Lines, Queenstown
On a site chosen for its transcendent views of the lake and the facing mountain ranges, a holiday home calling for a 'Queenstown look and feel' was created for a family who wanted a resort experience at home.
Stone, timber and glass were prescribed as key materials, with spaces to include an impressive entry, with lake view, a feature mudroom, and covered outdoor living with a luxury lodge or resort-like feel.
The entry porch is flanked by stone walls, with an over-scaled timber front door featuring steel hardware. The vaulted roof form continues though to the interior entry hall, which reveals impressive views to the lake and mountains beyond over three levels – from the stair at the lower level to the ridgeline of the roof, interrupted only by the sculptural Flos pendant by ECC.
