Kāinga Ora, Te Mātāwai, Greys Avenue, Auckland

The village comprises three new apartment buildings providing 276 new homes with wrap-around support services, shared community, retail, and workspaces.

Te Mātāwai is designed with manaakitanga at its heart and with support and shared services for residents. A range of apartment typologies are provided to meet housing needs and the building has been designed to wrap around a communal open space area to the rear with additional rooftop shared spaces.

The buildings provide a strong and active edge to Greys Avenue with new commercial, community, and retail ground floor uses. The site is located close to the Waihorotiu Stream, and this has been woven into the design which has sought to reflect the mauri and tikanga of the wai.

The buildings are now complete and welcoming residents.
