Ōtautahi Community Housing Trust - Social Housing

Replacing earthquake damaged council housing, this 90-home development cleverly balances site constraints, community needs and tenant privacy. The development consists of a range of one- to four-bedroom homes, set across the 1.6-hectare site in two storey groupings. Robust brick veneer and metal cladding is offset by soft and colourful landscaping, which connects courtyards, laneways, and carparks across a larger site circulation, in an open, park-like setting. Putting the needs of its tenants at its heart, positive social and environmentally sustainable outcomes of this project meet the principles of manaakitanga that guide the Trust’s work.
