This project looked at an existing well known apartment complex in Wellington - Gordon Wilson Flats. Flat C was chosen, then existing drawings were created. From there, the apartment was redesigned, specified and presented. The designer used colours from the 50s, when the building was built as well as ample storage to ensure the small studio apartment wasn't cluttered..

Gordon Wilson Flats Design Spec

A rangatahi residence in the community. Designed to encourage each rangatahi who comes to stay to engage with their own Rangatiratanga/self determination. Spatial and atmospheric flexibility has been emphasised, while also maintaining a safe and secure home. The framing of a central courtyard acts as both a boundary and creates a sense of play between the interior and exterior. Each interior space has a unique relationship with this central communal space and the outside, enabling rangatahi to rehabilitate without a feeling of imprisonment, but rather a punanga/refuge in the community.
