These are the first pictures available of a future-futuristic home which many have dubbed worthy of a Bond movie. Set on Kawau Island about 60km north of Auckland, the Mahina house (the Maori name for Moon) has been designed by Weber Consulting with floor to ceiling windows in the shape of a crescent.With a stark white modern interior that references the past; its website states it will remind the owner of 'the glamorous age of martinis and tuxedos.'

On completion it will feature, a plant room, deck and swimming pool - and all within a large 827 square metres.

Overseas investors at this point are among those expressing an interest in the luxury home. That is, if the property reaches completion - at this point Kawau residents (of only 400) are split on the proposed plans.
