Introduction
31 Awatea Road is a very good example of a mid-century, tri-level home. Ideally orientated to the North East, the house is bathed in beautiful light. The design welcomes the warming winter sun and protects from the hot afternoon summer sun. It has all the features one could hope for from the era; large windows; quarry tiles; an emphasis on natural materials; voluminous, interconnected spaces; and split-level living spaces that create a series of private moments.
“A sensitively updated mid-century modern design at its most joyful – and playful. A must see house for a design savvy family.”
Background
The story began in 1969 when the vacant land was purchased by Mr & Mrs A. Pearse, who commissioned a relatively young firm, Noel Bell – Ridley Smith Architects. Today the company is well-known as NBRS, a large architectural practice known for its emphasis on connecting people with place – ‘design that enhances people’s lives’. This principle is most evident at 31 Awatea Road. The feeling of walking out onto the large deck seeing the reserve stretching away into the distance towards the setting sun must be very similar to the experience when the house was completed circa, 1970. The 1,397 sq m block melds into the reserve. The garden becomes the valley view, with little sense of neighbours, the big sky view and glorious light shows at sundown inspire and delight.
