The Coast House

Residential Architectural Photography, South Coast

Residential Architectural Photography – The Coast House, New Zealand

The Coast House is a sustainably designed coastal residence by architect Stacey Farrell, recognised as Green Home of the Year in 2021 for its low-impact materials, passive design strategy, and sensitive integration with the surrounding dune landscape. This architectural photography project focused on capturing the home’s relationship to the coast, natural light, and material palette across changing weather and tidal conditions.

The imagery has been featured in international publications including Homes for Our Time 2 (TASCHEN), Small Holiday Houses (Penguin Books), and Modern Houses in Black, as well as editorial features in Wallpaper, The Local Project, Home Magazine, Pendulum, and Grand Designs Magazine UK.
