The brief called for a beach house which takes advantage of the spectacular natural environment surrounding the site and is able to be used year round. The site is at the base of a steep mountain slope behind the beach which is completely covered in tall mature Pohutukawa trees, it is a rear site with access via a right of way, an existing two storey house is in front of the site obscuring views to the ocean from the lower level.

这份简报呼吁建造一座海滨别墅，它可以利用周围壮观的自然环境，全年都可以使用。该遗址位于海滩后面陡峭的山坡底部，完全覆盖着高大而成熟的波胡图卡瓦树，它是一处可通过通道进入的后方场地，一栋现有的两层楼高的房屋就在场地前面，从较低的层次遮住了对海洋的看法。

The site, being overhung by trees and under mountain peaks to the east which curve around to the North is extremely sun challenged and subject to regular onshore winds in the summer months.

该场地由树木悬吊，东侧的山顶下，向北边弯曲，极受太阳影响，在夏季受陆上风的影响。
