5,200 sqm / Auckland
This mixed-use development includes a small hotel, apartments, commercial offices and retail space, all stacked over several levels of underground parking. The various functions are wrapped around a landscaped courtyard designed to provide a focus for the complex and bring light into the interiors. Fair-faced concrete and raw timber is softened with planting and the building’s complex silhouette, the overall effect being remarkably strong and crisp.
