Vulcan Charred Extension

Abodo Vulcan Charred timber weatherboards add a sense of contrast and contemporary texture to the additional wing for an existing home in Jack’s Point, Queenstown.

For this project, architects Kerr Ritchie were originally called upon to add sun shading to a schist-clad home in Jack’s Point. The success of this addition, which used Abodo Vulcan Charred timber, inspired the homeowners to expand their brief to encompass a new wing on the neighbouring section, containing a guest apartment, office space, wine cellar, pool, games room and additional garaging.

The sun shading reaches across the brow of the original home and connects the two both physically and in terms of materiality. The new form then extends outwards, creating a windbreak for the pool deck and landscaped outdoor area, as well as providing the requested amenities.
