Rural Collection

Journeys Rest House is Curated's first rural concept, and is an evolution of Architect Michael Cyra’s own personal home. Inspired dually by New Zealand's agricultural landscapes and back country timber cabins, Journey’s Rest would belong and enhance any of this country's pristine rural settings.

This 3/4 bedroom family home offers an adaptable floor plan to suit your individual needs. The modular layout allows the opportunity to create the ideal arrangement for your family now or as it changes over time. Curated can work together with you to provide options for rural or suburban sites, flat or sloped.

We are proud to offer this flexible design solution with price security and builders input involved at every stage along the way. Enjoy your winters cozy next to the fire and your summers with the doors open connecting to the outdoors.

Curated offers a premium level of design, materials, and quality. You’ll see this reflected in higher ceilings and clever use of space, as well as our deeper understanding of New Zealand’s unique conditions. Sustainably sourced New Zealand timber cladding extends from the exterior of the home to the interior, while large expands of sliding glass doors blur the lines of inside and outside to create proper connection to the landscape beyond, natural cross ventilation for cooling in warmer months and an instant indoor- outdoor flow from open plan living for entertaining and NZ family life.
