This seven storey mixed use development whole heartedly embraces its dynamic coastal environment. This building will provide high quality residential living above ground floor retail spaces, offering a welcoming, pedestrian-friendly interface.

Materiality is celebrated throughout the design with horizontal strata patterns drawing reference from the sandstone cliffs on nearby Takapuna beach, punctuated with natural stone walls. These geological textures are combined with weathered timber-look cladding, paying tribute to the classic New Zealand bach. Coastal vegetation species flow from the rooftop to provide a cohesive seaside experience. The building is capped by an eye-catching rippled roof that floats gently above, emulating the movement of the ocean.

We love architecture, not just for the beauty found in thoughtful spaces, but for the role it plays in creating liveable buildings, communities, and cities. At Gel we understand that careful design can help shape the fabric of our country for the better. We’re known for designing homes and workplaces that are beautiful to look at, practical to build, and a joy to live and work in. We are new home, urban regeneration and masterplanning specialists. Sustainability is in the DNA of all our projects, with considerations such as efficient land use, using locally-sourced products, optimising solar access and reducing waste at the forefront of our thinking. Gel Architects are an NZIA (New Zealand Institute of Architects) registered practice. 

At ArchiPro we recognise and acknowledge the existing, original and ancient connection Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples have to the lands and waterways across the Australian continent. We pay our respects to the elders past and present. We commit to working together to build a prosperous and inclusive Australia.
