19.10.2022
We are proud to be part of the project team for Te Whakaoranga o Te Puhinui: Te Rautaki, Te Puhinui Regeneration Strategy which was the category winner for Master Planning and Urban Design Strategy and was awarded the Charlie Challenger Supreme Award at last week’s New Zealand Institute of Landscape Architects (NZILA) Awards 2022.
Judges said the project was “an outstanding example of processes around stream regeneration in south Auckland, within a wide cultural and natural setting.”
The purpose of Te Whakaoranga o te Puhinui strategy is to realise the regeneration of Te Puhinui in a way that is inclusive, place-sourced, culturally led and community-fed so that Te Puhinui and its people can thrive once more.
A big congratulations to all the project team including Te Waiohua iwi; Ngaati Te Ata, Ngaati Tamaoho and Te Ākitai o Waiohua, Resilio Studio, Eke Panuku Development Auckland, with support from Crank, Healthy Waters, Jasmax, Johnnie Freeland, Mau Studio, Morphum Environmental, NativebyNature (Lucy Tukua) and WSP.
