Penny Hay Architects have a way of blending landscapes and buildings in their projects, no matter where. The result is stunning. Elegant. Relaxed. Above, two images of a storm cottage in the Great Barrier. Below - three pics from the Brancott Heritage Estate, Blenheim
And finally, two images from an island retreat, Waiheke. I could move into any of these three houses, wouldn't you?
All images from the Penny Hay Interior Architect website. More images from Penny Hay's interiors here
Oh my, that first image is STUNNING. I've been working on a series of paintings that could have been inspired by it. The buildings are lovely also, I especially like the one in the second photo.
ReplyDeleteHope to see those paintings online, once they are finished.

ReplyDeleteAnd one that MOST reminds me of the image above is here: http://ravenwoodforest.blogspot.com/2011/02/moveable-feast-in-forest.html
When I get back into the studio (when the setting up of the new studio is complete) I want to continue with this series.
Stunning photos. You are right...relaxed elegance. It's as if there's no separation between the interior and exterior spaces. This isn't seen often in my western culture. It's wonderful for me to see. Thank you for sharing these photos.- Diana
