Infill Housing Newtown (Second Year, Second Semester)

In 1999 newtowns only basketball hall was destroyed by a fire and never rebuilt. This infill house provides the community with a court and community garden space which can be used by all ages. The house on the property is for a retired couple from a sporting background who want to give back to the community through the maintenance and caretaking of these spaces. The design is based on a combination of stadium seating and watch tower architecture creating an “overseeing” architecture for the clients to reside in.



The site is located at 70 Daniell Street in the heart of the Newtown community one of Wellington City's richest suburbs.
