PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Christchurch has lost an estimated 6,000 houses due
to the 2010-2011 earthquakes. With projections of
36,000 workers expected to move to the city for the
rebuild, there is a very real and urgent housing crisis.
Cambridge Terrace is located along the Avon River
and is still, two years after the earthquakes, within
the CBD closed cordon. Many buildings have been
demolished while others fate is pending. With a vast
area of the neighbourhood having to be rebuilt, this
site was selected for the potential to revitalise the riv-
erside.
The proposal is for a multi-unit residential complex
with a focus on connecting the river with the neigh-
bourhood. This evolved from investigations on water
supply and treatment methods and led on to experi-
mentations with porosity and ow. These studies were
carried out through sponge absorption testings and
informed the building concept and inspired the overalldesign
form to be canyon-like volumes. The buildings
are lifted 24metres above ground to share the same
maximum height of the neighbouring buildings.
The design intends to integrate public life of the street
with private spaces and examine the relationship be-
tween these different programmes. In order to do
this the arrangement of the buildings is focused on
enhancing connections between public and private.
The idea of porosity was also incorporated into the
meeting ground between these spaces with perme-
able surfaces that allow light, noise and smells to lter
through.
In response to the urgency for single to small house-
hold dwellings, the target market is focused on young
single households, couples without children, and the
working population in the trade area.
