Seeing this in today’s @nzhviva brings back memories! I remember visiting this house in the 70s as a child and having Chinese tea on one of the floating balconies with Brian Brake and his partner Aman together with my father Brian. I’ll never forget the visit or the house! The balconies overlooked ponds of waterlillies and the house filled with artefacts. #brakehouse #titirangi #nzhviva https://www.instagram.com/p/CG3dGVJs3-r/?igshid=nkbe3tx34gas
