Shoot Location - Bunker House by Chris Tate

Featured as NZ Home of the Year 2025

Bunker House is a truly cinematic location - a sculptural, architectural landmark perched high above the raw, dramatic coastline. Fourteen years in the making, this extraordinary space was designed by Chris Tate and offers a powerful backdrop for film, fashion, editorial, and commercial shoots.

Framed by volcanic black sand, dense native flora, and uninterrupted views of the Pacific, Bunker House is both isolated and intensely connected to its surroundings. Its striking concrete form and minimalist interiors create a bold contrast with the natural landscape - ideal for capturing visual drama and depth.

From sweeping coastal vistas to quiet, meditative interior spaces, every angle offers a curated frame. A single viewing slit reveals life and movement outside, while inside remains serene, private, and controlled - perfect for creative direction.

This location suits brands and teams looking for a statement setting for campaign shoots, brand storytelling, lookbooks, or high-end content creation.
