Te Pākau Maru

Te Pākau Maru is a complex, multi-stage build delivering 63 multi-storey homes across a mix of four distinct typologies. Designed to meet a diverse range of housing needs, this project demonstrates our ability to manage staged construction, integrate blind mixed-tenure requirements, and deliver durable, well-designed housing at scale.

Homestar 7 certified

Independently verified by the New Zealand Green Building Council, meeting high standards for sustainability, durability, and occupant performance.

Energy-efficient design

Optimised building envelopes, low-impact materials, and efficient systems reduce operational costs and carbon footprint.

Heat recovery ventilation

Integrated into every home for continuous air exchange and improved indoor air quality with minimal energy loss.

Future climate adaptation

Structures and materials are engineered to withstand changing environmental conditions, reducing maintenance and ensuring long-term asset integrity.

Adaptive stormwater management

Coastal stormwater flood management designed for resilience and compliance with modern hydraulic standards.

Master planning

Thoughtful layout and urban design principles enhance efficiency, connectivity, and future development potential.

Staged construction programme

Delivered across three planned stages, enabling efficient sequencing and risk management throughout development.

Stakeholder & community engagement

Regular communication with neighbouring residents, businesses and facilities kept them informed and reduced disruption throughout the build.

Blind mixed-tenure approach

Uniform design and specification across tenure types, maintaining quality and visual consistency.

Accessibility compliance

Bespoke design solutions accommodate diverse accessibility requirements and ensure compliance with the NZ Building Code.

Remediation of contaminated land

Comprehensive site remediation processes ensure environmental safety and development readiness.

Coordination & management

Integrated oversight of essential services such as utility providers and public civil infrastructure works to support timely, efficient project delivery.

Material optimisation

Due to the staged approach and optimised procurement, a containers worth of materials were able to be reused across subsequent stages of the build.
