Collaboration was key to designing an architectural home that replaced
an existing house lost to the 2010/2011 earthquakes. Cymon Allfrey
and don roy of Cymon Allfrey Architecture in Christchurch were the
two creative minds behind the ‘Bradnor road’ home in fendalton, and
were awarded the 2016 National residential New Home over 300sqm
Architectural design Award and the residential interiors Architectural
design Award.
designed to accommodate a couple nearing retirement and pay
homage to the owners’ love of mid-century modern architecture, the
home needed to “expand functionally when grandchildren came over
or they wanted to entertain,” Cymon says. There also needed to be a
promise of connection between the house and its natural surroundings,
and, just as importantly, a personal and emotional connection between
the owner and house through the incorporation of loved qualities from
the existing home. A sense of familiarity depicted through architectural
language meant that the home has rooms “organised in a similar way”,
and the grand living room orientates to the river.
