2023 Auckland Architecture Awards Winner
Jervois Apartments
Simple, restrained and understated in so many ways, this project is an impressive example of how urban developments can engage with the public realm. Designed in response to a range of complex planning constraints, the curvaceous veil to the street defines the project’s identity while performing the more functional roles of balustrade and privacy screen. In plan, the building is no more than it needs to be, with linear apartments drawing light and ventilation in at both ends while providing exceptional views across the city and horizon beyond. This ambitious and remarkable project establishes a new benchmark for medium-density residential development projects in Aotearoa New Zealand.
