The project’s objective is to create a build-to-rent development that forms a community of around 358 households. This will be achieved by offering apartments along with shared amenity spaces. The choice of location plays a crucial role in shaping the community, especially considering that build-to-rent projects cater to mobile residents. Situated in Takapuna’s metropolitan center, this project will appeal to residents who are drawn to the area due to its proximity to natural amenities, the offerings in Takapuna, and its convenient distance from Auckland’s city center.

This project’s foundation lies in research conducted by JLL. Their assessment of the existing housing supply in Takapuna and nearby regions, combined with their expertise in Build-to-Rent developments, has led to the identification of various housing types. These different typologies, ranging in size and amenities, are intended to promote diversity among the residents.

Amenities Space

Given that the duration of residency is a key performance measure, the task of attracting and retaining residents holds significant importance. Therefore, the project must provide amenities and foster a sense of community that set it apart from other options. Furthermore, as a long-term investment for the clients, the project must remain relevant and maintain high performance throughout its lifespan.

Beyond the residential aspects of the building, there will be onsite retail, food and beverage establishments, two new commercial spaces, and a gym open to the public. These offerings will serve not only the building’s community but also nearby residential developments and the broader locality. The brief calls for approximately 150 parking spaces (at a ratio of 0.4:1), enabling the attraction of residents with active lifestyles, while also reducing reliance on private vehicles through a lower parking ratio compared to similar projects of this size.

Materiality

Inspired by the rugged beauty of the eastern coast cliffs, the design concept extends to the building’s cladding. The podium facade is adorned with a veneer brick in a light and warm shade, bestowing it with a textured and natural appearance that feels connected to the earth. This aesthetic is harmoniously enhanced by the use of bronze aluminum elements for the balustrades, window frames, and metal panels. Balancing the perceived solidity of the mass with inviting warm highlights.

While as the tower ascends, it is adorned in a skin-like facade, a curtain wall system with dark aluminium joinery which seamlessly merges with the glazing. The tower takes on a reflective quality, akin to the sky above, punctuated by recessed balconies featuring glass balustrades, adding both depth and elegance to the composition.

Design Intent:

The project brief called for a masterplan of a 1660m2 site to three lots. Positioned on the southwestern corner is an existing doublestorey standalone building. To optimise space utilisation, two of the lots, each around 500m2, are designed for terrace houses, aligning with planning guidelines for maximum occupancy.

The design of the new terrace houses is artfully integrated with the sloping topography, ensuring harmony with the surroundings. Emphasis is placed on respecting neighbour’s views, while optimising the vistas and daylighting for the terrace units. The architectural approach employs simple geometric forms and a light material palette that highlights the natural textures, primarily featuring bricks and timber.

The landscape design is meticulously considered to complement the terraced nature of the topography. The resultant is a smooth transition between indoor and outdoor spaces, fostering a cohesive and functional flow.

Markets Sector: Residential

Size: 250 sqm

Budget: £200,000

Status: Completed July 2010

Design Intent:

The renovation of the Factory involved optimising a challenging apartment layout to facilitate the penetration of natural light into its depths. The client’s request was for a sleek, contemporary interior that prioritised storage to uphold the industrial vibe of the converted warehouse. The design incorporates a polished concrete kitchen bench and custom dark concrete tiles in the bathroom, enhancing the industrial aesthetic alongside exposed brick walls and aged wood floorboards. Glass partitioning with sheer curtains allows light to flow through the bedrooms and into the spacious corridor connecting the living and sleeping areas. The bathroom, featuring dark concrete elements, creates a stylish contrast within the bright apartment, offering a calming retreat for privacy and relaxation.

Waiparuru Hall and proposed new Whitaker Hall work together to provide a variety of student living options. Students living in Whitaker Hall will have access to the central facilities incorporated within Waiparuru Hall. This includes catering, living and learning spaces.

Whitaker Hall enables the formation of a new courtyard space between the three buildings. This space is conceived as village green where students from all buildings can meet and enjoy a space that has access to good natural light and connection to public spaces.

Design Intent:

Whitaker Hall, represents the realisation of a master plan that will deliver the University of Auckland an additional 1,450 student rooms. This project will create a community, across two sites, by offering not only places to sleep, but also places to live, play, eat and learn.

Part of a well-designed student residence is understanding student needs but also allowing flexible for change as students change. First year accommodation is about providing an environment that is an incubator for talent, that will nurture, mentor and encourage learning. Technology for today and provision for the future, robust yet humanistic and quality materiality and finishes are critical so too is the simplicity in construction for the project to be feasible.

Activation of Public Space

The Whitaker Hall design delivers a critical mass to the end of Whitaker Place and forms an appropriate end to this student precinct street. We have conceived this as having a two sided interface, offering amenity to both student residents and the public. This edge is soft and malleable, providing opportunity for residents and public to dwell and socially interact.

URBAN DESIGN PRINCIPLES

Vilage Cluster

At an urban scale it is important that the development feels like a collection of buildings. At the same time, at a pedestrian level, a mixture of spaces between the buildings will encourage a more informal place. The development needs to be a collection of buildings and places for the people who live there as well as being understood as a cohesive whole. The Village Green being centrally located within the village is a key component in uniting this building cluster at a human scale, providing a finer grain of detail for the occupants.

ACTIVATION OF PUBLIC SPACE

Sympathetic Bulk

The Southeastern corner of Whitaker Hall is the extreme corner of the city’s form and the planning controls restrict the height of any development in this area. At the same time the Symonds St cemetery to the south of the site will remain undeveloped. The proposed design acknowledges and respects this historic cemetery by stepping the building form down at this corner. The project then steps back up the site towards the CBD - providing greater views for residents and an appropriate scale comparison with adjacent developments. This stepped massing also enables light and view into the site, from the East.

We conducted a meticulous space planning exercise, prioritising the efficient utilisation of space, including careful consideration of ceiling space for services. Our focus was on optimising room layouts and floor-to-floor headroom, all while prioritising the well-being of the users. This approach ensures we maximise room functionality without compromising the overall comfort and usability of the space.

Building C Shared Kitchen

Situated in Building C on Level B3, this shared space spans approximately 260 square meters and accommodates up to 150 students. The area is distributed across two floors, with the upper level serving as a mezzanine lounge overlooking the double-volume dining space. This shared space opens up to the Lower Plaza, the ‘Retreat Garden.’ Accessible from here, a set of steps leads to the ‘Village Green,’ creating a connection back to the main area of the public realm.

Primarily serving Building C, which offers catered accommodation, this shared kitchen is supplemented by more extensive ground floor common facilities in Waiparuru Hall, containing dining and social spaces. Accessible close-by either via stairs from the courtyard or the main entrance, these larger facilities enhance the overall experience for users.

The layout is thoughtfully designed with a linear arrangement to maximise views into the courtyard and optimise natural daylight. The functions are strategically extended horizontally and vertically from the courtyard, with the kitchen area positioned furthest away. This placement ensures that the kitchen, requiring less daylight and benefitting access to services, is efficiently organised within the space.

Building D Shared Kitchen

At the eastern end of each wing in Building D, there are shared kitchens designated as Type 1, Type 2, and a Type 3 positioned centrally within each wing. Type 1 is slightly larger, accommodating 10 students, while Type 2 caters to 8 students. Type 3 is designed for 9 students. On each floor, there are a total of 4 kitchens, ensuring ample provision for all students on that floor. Notably, Type 3 is adaptable to meet accessibility requirements if necessary.

The meticulous design of each kitchen incorporates considerations for living, dining, and cooking functions within the shared space. Special attention has been paid to appliances positions and spatial arrangement of joinery to enable multiple users to access all aspects of the shared area comfortably. The design ensures sufficient maneuvering space while maintaining good storage for students to optimise the utilisation of the space.

Enhancing the overall ambiance, each kitchen features full-height glazing that provides abundant outdoor views and natural daylight. This design choice fosters a welcoming environment for students to socialise and hang out, contributing to an engaging communal space.

Facade Design

Facade Panels

Curved concrete panels reflects the movement of water and the rolling hills that once existed. The texture acknowledges the strength of the stream’s current as lines imprinted on the textured concrete panels.

The concrete panel will be a mixture of stain, colour oxide and exposed aggregate to give a variety of texture. Glazed lounge areas create strong contrast to the textured facade panels. The kinetic appearance of the patterned facade relates to the design of Waiparuru Hall where its forms entice a sense of welcoming and gesture from Grafton Gully and into the city and the University of Auckland campus.

design with curved textured panels evoking a sense of movement.

Tone and Texture

The proposed building material palette looks to reflect the history, geography and significance of the historic Waiparuru stream. The movement of water and its playful nature weaving and rolling over stones and pebbles is illustrated through rhythmic patterns as rebates and saw cuts in the facade panelling and its curviture form. A mixture of stain and colour oxide into the concrete panels will bring natural / earthy tones into the design.

Relationship and Intergreation with Landscape

The combination of the soft facade form and material pallette works seemlessly into the existing landscape of the cemetry and proposed courtyard areas and student village green. Along the streetscape, the incorporation of dynamic lines and forms becomes an integral aspect of the landscape design, seamlessly merging with the building entrances. Purposefully positioned plazas serve as focal points, responding to both building entrances and the internal layout.

The site features a series of landscape platforms terraced in accordance with the existing topography. Strategically positioned to offer both interior views and privacy by screening public perspectives. This thoughtful arrangement not only capitalises on the natural surroundings but also enhances the overall aesthetic and functional aspects of the space.
