Ayr Street, Hagley Park

Proudly standing on the north side of Hagley Park, this is now an iconic feature of the cityscape. An unusual project designed in the Regency style, this development was a design collaboration between Adam Architecture (UK) and Bespoke Architecture. A variety of styles from Georgian to Victorian, this gated development is adjacent to Hagley Park and encompasses a range of sizes and is finished to the highest possible standard. The design aesthetics provided a challenge for us to design the layouts as we do not live the same way as in the UK. Careful though was put into the planning of the site and individual layouts to achieve the indoor-outdoor flow desired here in New Zealand. Being a prominent site with roading and a wellness centre for the inhabitants, the Council requirements were tremendous but with negotiation and skill, the development was approved and we are proud to state that the design remained faithful to the style and brief of our client and is now a landmark statement in Christchurch.
