Suitcase House in Wellington
5 Oct 2021
Design: Melling Architects
Location: Wellington, New Zealand
Suitcase House, Wellington
The Suitcase House is a one bedroom design is located at the bottom of a narrow access strip which leads to a larger plot of land some 20 metres above street level. The design places a partially open living, kitchen, dining, and bedroom plan on top of a garage plinth with internal access.
The internal stair splits the kitchen/dining/lounge area from the bedroom/bathroom area though the areas remain connected visually.
A single sloping roof approximately follows the pitch of the site and creates a lofty and largely glazed volume at the living end, the effect of which makes a compact space feel larger than what it is. This is further increased by an outdoor patio on the glazed northern edge of the building.
