2025 Auckland Architecture Awards Winner
Karanga Changing Sheds
The Karanga Changing Sheds embody sustainable design with a playful, colourful approach, blending architectural presence with a carbon-positive ethos. Developed with Eke Panuku, the modular structures use recycled and pre-consumer waste materials, including timber shingles and panels made from ocean plastics. Prioritising longevity and adaptability, the architects implemented a circular economy approach, ensuring materials are reusable and the project has minimal environmental impact. This initiative not only meets immediate needs but also sets a precedent for sustainable, temporary urban interventions, showing how such structures can contribute positively to both the environment and the urban experience.
