The project involves the upgrading of 104 flats including refurbishment of existing bedsit units and the amalgamation of units into 1, 2 and 4 bedroom flats. It also includes exterior recladding and landscaping.

The existing x4 blocks of the Kotuku Apartments each consisted of x4 levels of 30m² studios. These have been increased to 45, 60 and 90m² of 1, 2 and 4 Bedroom apartments. The arrangement of 2 and 4 bedroom units to the ground floors has been designed to encourage families to live in the apartment blocks and to provide the tenants direct access to the new landscaped site by providing additional access from the living room to private courtyards. Studios and 1 Bedroom apartments have been reconfigured to better utilise the space while still maintaining existing riser locations servicing all floors to levels 1, 2 and 3.

About the
Professional

Creating what matters for future generations is the philosophy that underpins our core values and how we approach our architectural commissions.

We have over 150 years of history as a public architecture practice. Our acquired knowledge and skills over this time are coupled with continual research and innovation. Coupled with our wide project experience we apply this in our design work to create efficient, resilient, sustainable solutions benefiting the communities across New Zealand.

Our history is embedded in our core values focusing on the public good and creating an enduring legacy. With this in mind we build our relationships allowing us to engage and collaborate closely with our clients. We explore with openness and transparency, to deliver the best solution with integrity and responsibility, and valuing the natural environment and resources.

We are proud of having contributed to developing the vertical and horizontal infrastructure and environments that our nation relies upon over the last 150 years history and we continue our vision to create what matters to future generations.

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.
