Tanglewood

Nestled amongst native plants on a suburban site in Auckland, Tanglewood took an eco-centric approach, returning a typical suburban property to a more natural state. This Petal‑Certified residence (Energy, Health + Happiness, and Beauty Petals) reimagines a 1940s family home into a regenerative haven. Salvaged timber and furniture from the original building are woven into the new structure, which blends seamlessly with native bush gardens. With net-positive energy and biophilic beauty embedded in every aspect of the design, Tanglewood showcases a thoughtful, place-sensitive development that steps lightly on the land.
