2025 Wellington Architecture Awards Winner
Epuni
Epuni is an impressive demonstration of how medium-density public housing can be delivered at scale without overwhelming its suburban setting. Through a considered composition of built forms, clear wayfinding, and a calm, cohesive material palette, the development offers architectural variety without visual noise. Despite its size, the project feels approachable and well integrated — a gentle intensification that respects the neighbourhood while dramatically improving housing access. Above all, this is housing with heart — generous, accessible, and life-changing for its residents. Epuni is a model for public housing that supports community, dignity, and resilience.
