Ahipara Worker’s Cottage

The Ahipara Workers Cottage, designed by Sorted Architecture, serves as a community clubhouse and accommodation for workers, their families, and friends within a coastal subdivision. The design emphasises functionality and warmth, clad with long-run iron and large barn-style doors to create a seamless connection with its environment. The open-plan layout and expansive deck offer a flexible, inviting space for social gatherings and relaxation, while the durable materials ensure the cottage stands up to its coastal setting. The overall design strikes a perfect balance of simplicity, comfort, and community spirit.
