The design is impressive. However I feel for the rest of the neighbourhood as this building does not fit at all with the surrounding architecture. Many of the designs featured on The Local Project are showcases for architecture that is sensitive to its surroundings whether alone in nature, or within existing neighbourhoods. This design, while very good, does not.

I don’t agree. This transforms at night, as the neighborhood decides to go on a stroll it gives so much warmth from what it provides while being so discreet, the material alone are worth the location more than you know, the neighborhood is what needs to keep up. Not saying everything needs to go, i just think this adds so much more to human life than any other building surrounding. Id be lucky to grow up admiring such art from afar. But I respect your perspective and think of it as a challenge to better suite materials that elevate its surroundings from all points of view.

I totally agree, not to mention that for the sake of the innovative design you have completely ruined the left and right sizes of the neighbouring houses. They now face to a concrete wall, for God's sake!. This type of architecture, even if it is eye-catching, in such surroundings should be forbidden. What you have done to those 2 neighbours is plain and simple being a complete bastard.

I was also looking for someone in the comments to mention this. While the architecture is amazing, the surrounding homeowners have a complete loss of privacy and gained a giant building out of their window. I am surprised this was approved, especially in a nice neighborhood.

This building quite literally sticks out like a sore thumb. I'm sure all the architecture was well thought out, but an integral part of architecture is to know where to build given that buildings interact with their surroundings.

"mixed-use development that positively contributed to Auckland’s built environment" I'm not sure how this building does this in its location. Perhaps if it were in Auckland's city centre it would be different, but this towers over everything around it and doesn't mesh well with the neighbourhood. As others have mentioned, I feel sorry for the direct neighbours who now have this to look at every day.

I love most of the projects featured on this channel but this one really disappoints. Other comments about inappropriate scale and prison-like feeling because of the screening and blank concrete walls echo my impression as well. Would not be happy if I lived next door. Sorry but this project doesn’t do it for me

Totally inappropriate development in that location: too big relative to its neighbours, and too close to the neighbouring homes for its size. The buildings across the road also now have a monstrous big box in front of them, rather than appropriately sized houses and apartments. Yes, it's shiny and new, but so what: it's just another modern box with expensive materials and fittings...
