An urban community closely connected to the transformation of Auckland’s fastest evolving suburb
Masterplan
Kōtuitui has been masterplanned to be a place that people want to live. With landscaped private grounds that extend out to the streetscape and pocket park, places for children to play as well as ample parking for residents and visitors. Careful consideration has been given to the roading to create a quiet, safe and peaceful community for residents and their visitors to enjoy.

He was a finalist in the World Architecture awards and his designs have twice been listed by World Architecture News as among the Six Best Houses in the World.

Light Mine - Coromandel Peninsula
A timber clad home by the beach on the Coromandel Peninsula – ‘Light Mine’ is a head turning place that references the old underground mines nearby. But unlike actual mine shafts, the shafts on this house are inverted, "mining the sunshine and starlight, extending into the sky as opposed to the earth" says Ken. Light Mine won the HOME Magazine, home of the year in early 2020.
