The brief required The Pump station to provide wastewater reticulation for up to 1000 dwellings in the adjacent Hunua Views Development which consists primarily of standalone housing with a local centre. To the north of the site is a reserve allocated for SW management and recreation.
The vision was to relate well to this development and brief, allowing the pump station to act as a marker building.
The result is an aesthetic that is expressed in a functional way with patterned concrete and a utilitarian front yard, while the pitched metal roof and apertures were forms more residential in nature with dynamic roof geometry creating a point of interest.
