2024 Auckland Architecture Awards Winner
Kōtuitui Terraces
A well-crafted, medium-density urban community adjacent to Manukau city centre, with strong connections into the existing neighbourhood. A simple material palette unifies the blocks without losing individuality across the two-to-three storey houses. The absence of garages offers welcoming thresholds, creating a streetscape defined by lush landscaping and a diversity of screening. Raising the units above ground level aids privacy to the street and stays within the bounds of NZS3604 for cost-effective construction. The developer’s pursuit of quality and an empowered approach to community building coupled with an Iwi partnership is evident.
