iPad. New Zealand. Andre Hodgskin
25
Mar 2008

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 covers 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.

The iPAD™ is the ultimate designer, affordable yet versatile pad.

Talking of putting it in Wellington...be-ing a light-weight kitset building, has it been designed with heavy wind loads in mind? And also the odd earthquake?

I also find the concept fantastic and would like to find out more about the price for construction just out of Wellington

Very interesting. We think that this ties in with the New Zealand architecture discussion as this seems to be the type of architecture that New Zealand values and shows interest in. Also, the iPAD's versatility is an important feature considering the importance of sustainability and adaptibility to its surroundings. An effective modern take on the traditional "prefabs" that we often see as temporary classrooms in schools.
