The Wairarapa Haybarn in Martinborough, New Zealand by First Light Studio Ltd.

Monday, March 12th, 2018

This barn-inspired home offers a striking reference to rural vernacular. Long and lean, the form is remarkably simple. A monolithic roof plane sweeps up past the large established walnut tree to form a double-height concert hall living space with mezzanine viewing gallery for the two retired musicians to practice, play and entertain friends.
