H&R Garlick Builders entered three homes in the Registered Master Builders House of the Year 2006 Awards and perhaps its most impressive entry is its new home entry situated in Moncks Spur.

The aesthetically pleasing design of this home, which has been entered in the New Homes $600,000 - $1 million category of the awards, takes its cue from its site's location. Nautically inspired, the home has been set in an eyrie-like position to make the most of Christchurch's incredible coastal views.

Not only has every room's focus been permitted to lie beyond expansive windows, but the roof-lines mimic a gull's wings.

This luxury, four-bedroom, two-bathroom home has been constructed with a sophisticated mix of Hebel panel, Titan board and plastered block.

Other sea-faring features include rigging wire and stainless steel on both interior and exterior balustrades, extensive use of decking and concealed interior storage.

The landscaping is also site-dictated, with natural walls crafted from the land's pre-excavated volcanic rock. Architect Dean Buckeridge has excelled in conceiving wonderfully interconnecting, visually dynamic spaces whilst concentrating no less on function. Examples of such designs can be seen in the upstairs living area, substantially eased by the luxury of an interior-goods lift gliding between ground-level garaging and an elevated cook's pantry. Interior, border-tiles surround carpeted areas to provide a clever source of passive solar heating. Shelter and warmth, not to mention an outlook of sea, mountains and plains can be found within the living areas at any time of day, inside and out. Even the double bath is positioned for spectacular views down to Moncks Bay and Shag Rock.

Structural details have been successfully combined in this home, resulting in a totally satisfying building coherence.
