There’s a familiarity to its form — the honesty of materials, the disciplined arrangement, and the restraint of what became known as the Christchurch Style of architecture.
You would be forgiven for assuming that this was a Warren and Mahoney design, yet while the influence is unmistakable, the authorship is not.
The architect who conceived it, and young assistant who detailed it, both worked within that very office— translating the firm’s architectural ethos into a private commission. In doing so, they created not a replica, but a quiet act of admiration for the practice that shaped them.
