Stonefields

Auckland, New Zealand

The main theme of ‘Guardianship' is supported by the local iwi story of the ‘Flight of Reipae’, the name of the adjacent mountain volcano, Mt Wellington and by the Bill Hammond painting ’The Watchers’.

Templeton engaged Walkers to provide masterplanning and then full documentation for a 100 homes development. This sold rapidly off our presentation documentation, the concept was for low cost housing, several house type typologies, and provide a urban neighbourhood that would retain it’s long term value for investor purchasers.

For economy of construction great attention was made for repetition of details and buildibility, especially for terrace houses. The Council urban review requested the main corner of the site to be 4 levels, so a small apartment complex was designed to home 9 apartments and create a strong urban corner element in the Stonefields landscape.
