House of the Day: K Valley House by Herbst Architects
This house, built into the steep hillside of New Zealand’s Kauaeranga Valley, was designed with a focus on sustainability and the provenance of materials. The corrugated iron exterior draws from the traditional rusting iron sheds common in the district, and has begun to develop a distinctive patina of age, intended as a kind of rural camouflage.
