Kokako Heights House On a Wild Bluff Facing Whale Island in Matatā
Kokako Heights House sits above Matatā, New Zealand, with a clear view to the coast and native bush. Designed by Arkhē in 2024, the house reads as a modest, site-led composition focused on light, breeze, and careful orientation. This compact house places rooms along the land’s edges and pulls the living areas toward the view, trading excess for clarity and durable, low-energy comfort.
