2024 New Zealand Architecture Awards Winner
Kōtuitui Terraces, Stage 2
The provision of density in affordable housing is a pressing concern in Aotearoa New Zealand and globally. In this challenging environment, Crosson Architects applies first-principles thinking and creativity to make incremental changes that are more than the sum of their parts. Working with a motivated client, Kōtuitui Terraces takes a long-term view and imagines better urbanism with thoughtful design, an informed understanding of the positive role of plants and trees and sophisticated architecture that is approachable, dignified, durable and meticulously parsed to deliver an uncommon refinement. Projects like this are important because they shift the needle. With the housing-development industry characterised by a thoughtless herd mentality, this project provides positive leadership and quality benchmarks.
