03 The buildings Auckland Rise & Sylvan Hill

Clad in a high quality brick, with a soft, organic colour palette, the five blocks have been designed to sit quietly among the existing Green homes and natural surroundings. Each new building is of modest proportions, with fewer than 20 or so homes per block, so there’s an intimate and friendly feel, and the sloped setting offers great views. Friendly The meandering paths, trees and greenery make this community feel really peaceful and close to nature.
