This Central Otago alpine lodge was designed as a sensory, immersive interior grounded in its dramatic landscape. Earthy tones, natural textures, and refined materials reflect the region’s raw beauty while delivering warmth and sophistication. At the heart of the home, a refined kitchen anchors a space designed for performance and connection. Bathrooms offer retreat and calm, while the powder room delivers moody theatricality. Bedrooms are soft, cocooning sanctuaries, and the lounge—anchored by a schist fireplace—embodies spatial drama and stillness. Every detail is intentional, creating a home that feels both deeply grounded and elevated in its architectural response.
