Give me one of the on the beach in New Zealand, with WiFi, and I’d be set.

Top New Zealand architect Andre Hodgskin created a sensation when he launched the BACHKIT in 2000, gaining acclaim in international design magazines. Andre has now developed the iPAD, a fresh look at the concept of a simple but stylish lightweight kitset building.

The iPAD is a true kitset bach designed to cover a range of options; it could be a one bedroom holiday home, secondary dwelling, granny flat, office, studio or resort unit to name but a few.

It can be grouped as a series of pavilions to form larger accommodation if required. A single iPAD totals 50m sq with decks of 55m sq and will retail in New Zealand for $125,000.00. Various external cladding and colour options are available to suit individual taste and context.

Of particular note is that the iPAD can be either manufactured off-site and easily transported to its final destination, or shipped as a kitset and erected on site by a licensed contractor.
