Weāre thrilled to share that The Warren Residences has been named a finalist in the 2026 The Designers Institute of New Zealand Best Awards, in the Residential Architecture: Multiresidential category.
The project responds to the challenge of creating six individual luxury homes on a steep, constrained WÄnaka site, while preserving privacy, outlook and a sense of connection to the landscape.
The result reflects the thinking, collaboration and problem solving of a wider project team, and this recognition is something we are pleased to share with everyone involved.
