Mt Vernon Station Homestead, a 139-year-old Waipukurau mansion, has been declared the winner in the heritage category of the Te Kāhui Whaihanga New Zealand Institute of Architects Gisborne and Hawke s Bay Awards.
Built in 1882, the house at Mt Vernon is a category 1 historic place. The homestead was painstakingly restored to its former glory, winning Napier architect Ann Galloway a prize in the process.
The restoration of the heritage-listed Mount Vernon Station house was one of seven projects honoured at the awards in Napier on Friday night.

There s a great indoor-outdoor flow from the kitchen in this NZIA award-winning Mount Maunganui house designed by Architecture Bureau.
This week the Concrete Bungalow project in Mount Maunganui, by Architecure Bureau, took out an NZIA Housing Award in Te Kāhui Whaihanga New Zealand Institute of Architects Waikato and Bay of Plenty Architecture Awards. And the beautiful timber kitchen, right in the heart of the home, captured our attention. While Hamilton-based architect Evan Mayo came up with the concept, the kitchen was detailed by Annique Heesen of Gezellig Interiors, Cambridge.

The kitchen was detailed by designer Annique Heesen of Gezellig Interiors, who says one of the owners made the steel framing for the island, the light fitting and the steel shelving unit on the rear wall.
