Case Study: Jacks Point

Architect & Project Manager: Darby Partners

Located on the shores of Lake Wakatipu, arguably one of the most beautiful places on earth, Jacks Point’s landscape is a national treasure with only 5% of the 12,000 ha permitted to be built on. Jacks Point will ultimately be a purpose built, fully functioning town with the golf course as the focal point.
