FendaltonHouse

A cool white quartzite chosen for a garden house that fills with southern light.

Canterbury light is flatter and cooler than Auckland's. The palette answers it with a white quartzite that holds a faint grey vein instead of a warm cream, so the surfaces stay crisp under overcast sky.

The island is a single 3.2m slab with no join — a specification decision made at the rack, not on the drawing.
