A 2018 TIDA Homes
New Zealand winner, this
home features key paints
and stains by Resene
To attract any recognition in the coveted
Trends International Design Awards
(TIDAs), a house has to be of exceptional
merit. And so to actually be a TIDA Homes
award-winner, the design has to be next
level. By extension it makes good sense
that any interior finishes are of the highest
possible quality.
Gary Todd Architecture designed this
2018 TIDA Homes award-winner nestled
in amongst stunning Queenstown scenery.
The biophilic house is designed to connect
with its setting through the senses. And
while the holiday house is two-thirds clad
in argon-filled triple glazing, the paint and
finish selections were also integral to this.
“We specified Resene Alabaster from
the Resene White and Neutrals range for
the living area ceilings to connect with
the full height kitchen and lounge joinery
and help frame the views to the front and
rear,” says the architect. “Resene Alabaster
offered a light, neutral foil along with the
flexibility to complement the wallpaper,
tile, steel, concrete and wood finishes.
“In fact, we used this same Resene off-
white in most rooms for similar reasons.”
The architect chose a custom Resene
stain for the living area’s Macrocarpa
board accents – both to enhance the grain
and provide a contextual link with forest
tree trunks behind the home.
