Inside a Wooden Cabin House on a Remote Island (House Tour)
Ойын-сауық
On the far side of Waiheke Island - just off the coast of Auckland, New Zealand - a cabin house becomes an escape for its occupants, offering unparalleled views of the island and ocean. With architecture and interior design from Daniel Marshall Architects (DMA) and construction by Dash Build, Waikopua reinstalls a resilience through its built form and establishes a connection to the surrounding land. Originally a colonial farming site, DMA and Dash Build relay a connection to the site’s history by positioning the cabin house to embrace the green life that surrounds it. Forming the design moving forward, the foliage and island landscape provide the basis for the modern and sculptural extensions of the home.
Referencing the home’s previous iteration, the architect and builder have employed the same aluminium louvers and double-height space of the original home. With the consistency of interior design choices and detailing of weatherboards, a refined touch seamlessly transpires through each room and building. Inspired by the idea of a campsite, the Waiheke Island cabin house takes the forms of separate accommodation units. The main pavilion houses the kitchen, living and dining rooms downstairs, whilst upstairs provides a shared bunk room and bedrooms that are detailed with honeyed timber accents to further relay the connection to the surrounds. Located just behind the main pavilions, the guest house is a separate living area, allowing for a sense of a privacy within the campsite-inspired layout.
Nestled between the main pavilions, a weatherboard and concrete deck allows for an informal gathering space where guests can relax and enjoy the island life. From entrance, the driveway becomes the focal point, used as both a guide for guests and allowing for unencumbered sightlines down to the ocean.
To embrace natural light, DMA and Dash Build employed elements upon the exterior of the home to harness the changing sunlight. Able to be admired from sea, large louvered fins have been fixed at a set angle to stop the harsher light of day from coming in and provide the owners a space of reprieve. Moreover, the materials used upon the exterior have been selected for durability against the intense environment of salt spray and the changing weather. From the black weatherboards that blend with the fauna to the tiles that reference the surrounding rockface, Waikopua by DMA and Dash Build evolves and further embeds itself into the landscape over time.

From boat builders to architects and home builders... the kiwi's talent is always impressive
This house is stunning, it sits so perfectly in this valley-like setting and the distribution of buildings amongst the tropical trees and plants gives it the vibe of a tropical resort retreat. Another great project! ♥
Absolutely love the simplicity and serenity of the building and interiors! Also adds so much room for owners to give their own touch and memories to the house.
We hope you enjoyed Waikopua by Daniel Marshall Architects and Dash Build, located on one of the most beautiful islands in the world, Waiheke Island in New Zealand.

A piece of art. Absolutely beautiful. I'm not envious of people with money but when I see this, sadly it does tug at my heart that I'll never be able to enjoy something like this....

This is a slice of heaven on earth! Stunning.
This project is very impressive!! The approach to the site and through it is so well designed and executed. Leaving the grove of trees was an excellent move. Sometimes the constraints that we design and build around make the project even stronger!
What a beautiful cabin house!!! 3:44 It's so clever to design this garage door~☺
I have watched many of the Local project videos and find them throughly enjoyable! In this video the commentary used the word 'stunning ' in reference to the Architecture. I believe that word applies equally to every phase of the project. Truly amazing!

Very lovely looking andi t gives the feeling of being good to live in.
Very beautiful choice of materials. Mysterious yet inviting.
A real stunner this one. And a short peddle to the signpost point as well. 👍
Stunning!

Me encanta los materiales de construcción, la arquitectura y la vista!! estar al lado del agua en la costa en Auckland fantástico!!!! Felicitaciones!!!! Saludos desde Chile!
This is luxurious minimalism. Perfect.
Every video on this channel looks like the main house Setting to a Black Mirror Episode.
Wow
The landscaping 😍
Beautiful house. Calling it a cabin might be a bit of a stretch…
Calling this a Cabin really takes away from the Art of the Architecture !
😍
OMG 😱
I never knew architecture could be so spiritual. Specially a cabin where the electricity is spotty and sewage questionable. And at the bottom of a wash? Nice view though
What is the background audio track?
Beautiful design and execution. Great video too. Left field question, but I’m wondering where that dining room table came from?
Architecture doesn't start until 800,000 dollars... - sun tzu
The louvred fins, where can I source this sort of materials? ❤
Beautiful design and craftsmanship. But the word 'remote' would be my personal negative trigger.
I’ll just be taking naps here the whole time.
cabaña?
When can I buy it?
Your Ukrainian title translation is incorrect. It should be: "Всередині дерев'яного котеджу на віддаленому острові (екскурсія будинком)"
Beautiful site, house and landscaping. So sad they used those nasty Chinese stone tile facade sheets instead of the gorgeous slate walls that are so familiar to both islands of NZ.
The way that the hyper-rich describe their home sites is almost comical.
how much bruh dude
So, you drive down the driveway; then what? Where do you park? How do you turn around? I didn't room by the boat. It was never explained how the parts fit together and we didn't see the. interiors of most of the rooms (saw the bunk room 5 times though. These videos are always like. this: they are intent on showing how sculptural and avant garde the houses are, but we never see the floor plans or even all the rooms. Are they objects de arte or are they functinal?
Une cabane en Français ce serait plutôt une habitation lègère en bois, généralement autoconstruite.
Knee Cow?? Correct pronunciation is NIKAU - PRONOUNCED KNEEE CO
“Just a beach house”…
통나무집? 하하하
Shit men, so beautiful
homes>cars.
Sigh…
I sort of have to agree with the other commenters that the architecture is striking, but I sort of think the interiors are sort of uninspired and boring. Sort of.

You're sort of right. I love the architecture but i sort of didn't like the interior design. But i sort of think that the designers sort of did it intentionally, in order to sort of draw the attention from inside the house to the nature surounding the house. Sort of!

"cabin"
zzzzzzzz
Kauri = co (as in ‘cove’) ree. Nikau = knee - co (as in ‘cove’). Roll the ‘r’. ‘au’ = ‘oh’ in Maori. Put some respeck on it. 5 vowel sounds. Not too hard. Intelligent people playing the dummy when it comes to correct pronunciation of Maori names. If you were building in France of Spain, you’d show the respect to put in the effort to pronounce the Spanish or French pronunciation of names correctly. Do better bro.

@@DiscoFang I know it’s triggering bro Try and keep up though. Systemic racism doesn’t mean that someone is intrinsically racist. It’s when the norm is to engage in behaviours that have a systemic prejudice and disrespect that has become the norm. You know. Like not caring about pronouncing someone’s name incorrectly. (If you hear your brain saying ‘b b b but I would pronounce someone else’s name correctly of another culture and are equally disrespectful. You’d be reaching. We don’t do that to other cultures bud. It’s uncomfortable. And rude. And less human.)
Palms look unhealthy
bro learn to pronounce kupu māori if ur gunna use it to name ur house
This is so unaffordable. Some of the patio doors are $20,000! So unappealing. This someone that want to brag about their “beach house.”
The only thing i do not like is the accent of speaker.
