Inside a Wooden Cabin House on a Remote Island (House Tour)


Embraced by the natural landscape, Waikopua by Daniel Marshall Architects promises an authentic island-living experience. Infused with materials that work with the everchanging elements of Waiheke Island, Waikopua is both a home and a retreat that evokes feelings of escapism and solitude.

Situated on Waiheke Island, just off the coast of Auckland, New Zealand, Waikopua is a collaboration between Daniel Marshall Architects (DMA). Built almost off the grid, Waikopua has had sewage and water systems implemented to offer the occupants an unparalleled escape to disappear from urban life. Supplying architecture and interior design, DMA collaborated with DASH Build to craft the home and installed a resilience and natural connection by using materials that respond directly to the elements of the island.

A stand of existing Nikau palms defined the location of the structures. – Local Project Video Feature, Waikopua island living / Daniel Marshall Architects
