Laguna Gallery
A space of luminosity, an atmosphere of subdued light, whose objective is to promote well-being. A place where light is the protagonist not only during the day, but as an urban lamp at night. A gallery designed to welcome, celebrate meetings and fulfill the wishes of people looking for qualified spaces to live.
In this store for Incorporadora Laguna, a question arises from the beginning: on a narrow lot, with walled sides, and a street with high vehicle traffic, what would be the desirable visuals?

Planned to bring about a sense of community, this artfully arranged collection of townhouses in Raglan features Vulcan Cladding finished in the warm tones of Protector - Straw.
Larnie Nicolson
Designed by Red Architecture, this multi-unit development of six two-bedroom homes is a key example of this compact and community-based design. In creating the spatial design and selecting materials, the architects saw an opportunity to forge a sense of cohesion with the town itself by arranging homes around common spaces and pathways.
