A Beautiful House with a Rooftop Garden Located in New Zealand's Wilderness (House Tour)

  • A beautiful house grounded within an extraordinary landscape setting, Matagouri House provides an immediate visual impact without taking away from the natural beauty of the surrounding environment. Removed from the urban centre of Queenstown, New Zealand, the home sits between two natural mounds in the surrounding tussock at the foot of The Remarkables mountain range and the edge of Lake Wakatipu.
    Sitting upon a plateau that lies within a broader curtilage of land, interior spaces are laid out around a sheltered courtyard under an engineered timber roof plane. The main living area of the beautiful house is considered a peninsula, a singular wide space that wraps around a protected courtyard. This courtyard has a strong sense of gravity for the overall composition of the land as it accesses the public wings of the building, including the kitchen and dining area. Bedrooms are upstairs - the elevated position and the interior design of the rooms nurture the aspect beyond the roof.
    As such, the powerful landscape setting is integral to the form and overall design of the beautiful house. Fearon Hay Architects draws on this in an interesting way to develop an occupation at a scale that feels comfortable for the residents. To do this they moderate the way the house captures the view, with areas removing the view entirely - the outlook is taken away and then re-presented for its impact to be fully understood.
    The beautiful house remains exquisitely immersed in the landscape. For example, the engineered timber roof plane carries a planted tussock green rooftop garden and is shaped to marry into the natural landforms. The way the home and the landscape blend into one also enables a strong sense of historic occupation. The architecture of the building isn't read as a new structure but is instead embedded in the landscape as if it has been developed over time.
    This theme continues in the home's interior design with a palette and materiality that reflects the landscape. Timber and muted, earthy tones dominate throughout and masonry is influenced by the surrounding rock formations. In terms of furniture, a ‘shaker design’ concept was employed, which is the idea of functional interior components that can be integrated within the beautiful house. The specification of planting on the garden roof is also influenced by the surrounding topography.
    Matagouri House looks outwards to its perimeter and natural environment to inform its very essence. The locally sourced engineered timber structure and planted roof strategies respond to the ambition for a sustainable, responsible architecture within this harsh alpine environment. It is the way the beautiful house relates to its striking setting that reveals its true power - a home that feels as remote and barren as the surrounding landscape yet maintains a sense of sanctuary and comfort.

    We hope you all enjoyed learning more about the breathtaking Matagouri in New Zealand’s South Island! The architectural marvel of this home, designed by Fearon Hay Architects, beautifully balances the rawness of its surroundings with a sense of domestic tranquillity. Matagouri was recently featured in Issue No. 12 of our Print Publication, which is available to purchase through our website - thelocalproject.com.au/publication/issue-12/

    The opening view immediately gave me sense of why the home was being built in the place where it was built. The home has an amazing view. I love the idea that there are places within the home which cannot see the view so no one becomes accustomed to the awesomeness of the view. The view will alwayse be awesome in the most grandest sense. I loved the roof because it does exactly what is said in the video, it gives the home a sense of having always been there. It removes the newness from the home since the home blends into the landscape. The home is really a respite from the everyday. Very lovely.

    I'm not sure why, but I longed for some contrast, even a bright blue planter statement to brighten up what seemed very austere and a bit cold -the music-making also was a bit sombre. The landscape can be very limited to browns/olives/grey in that part of the country and in NZ. I guess the introduced exotics like maples/oaks give interest and vibrance via autumn red/golden tones.

    How many bathrooms in this fine structure? It has the appearance of a bunker, using cover and concealment to avoid destruction. All along the coast of Europe you can see remnants of “Fortress Europe “, it would segue right in amongst the bunkers, with dunes enveloping the structure while native grasses soften the dark purpose for which they were created! A remote and forbidding structure this, hunkered down like some crouching animal.

      @@johnowens5342 Established cities are not an excuse or reasonable argument to encroach on wilderness areas. From a Sustainability vantage point, cities are far better for the planet. Also, this home may be a gateway and a thumbs up for others to choose the same path. If we ask the landscape and wildlife where they wish we would build luxury homes, could we guess what they would say?

    4:09 The chimney looks like a rubbish bin sitting in the middle of a field.

    I see what they were trying to achieve but it just falls ever so slightly short of achieving that intention in every space. It’s not a bad house by any means. It’s really quite nice. But it’s just not a masterpiece. Several minor aesthetic choices add up to create this deficit of cohesion that lets the overall impact of the design down.
