Kāinga Ora – Puketea Hinau
Createus Group were Design Lead on The Kāinga Ora Homes and Communities site at 410 & 412 Hinau Street and 1002 - 1008 Pukatea Street, Hastings residential redevelopment, transforming 6 existing adjoining Kāinga Ora properties into 16 new residential dwellings between 2020 to 2022. Our resulting Architectural Scheme and resulting drawings were supported by detailed Landscape Design and documentation - Development Nous, Civil Engineered site service works and drawings - Development Nous, Structural Engineered Drawings - Design Phase and Geotechnical Engineering review - RDCL. Working with local supporting design consultants we created 6 single bedroom clustered duplexes and terraced units connecting to Hinau St, whilst also providing 10 stand-alone and duplexed homes of varying bedrooms (two, three & four) connecting to Pukatea Street.
To best address the local area and site context the boundary interface was well considered, seeking to improve the connection the sites have with the St Aubyn Street Reserve which they back on to. As a result the 10 Pukatea Street lots are connected by a one-way JOAL entering off Pukatea Street extending to the rear boundary, improving the relationship between the lots, the vehicle & pedestrian circulation, and the park. Creating a distinct but visually open boundary between the development and the St Aubyn Reserve.
The development was Project Managed by - Total Homes Solutions, the Build Partner - was Devon Homes and the Landscaping was done by Tony & Sarah’s Section Care.
