57 Matipo Street, Riccarton, Riccarton, Christchurch City
Christchurch City Community Halls
A new concept of shared accommodation brought to the heart of the University of Canterbury's favoured dwelling suburb with style and eco grace. What was a bungalow on a rather large corner site has become a post earthquake triumph of sustainability. A series of sturdy concrete terraced units, each with low maintenance living areas and five ensuite rooms make up this block, complete with bike parking and communal wifi and electricity. Commercially, the concept is still trying to find it's feet in 2015, with rooms still vacant and occupancy prices dropping. The Architecture and sustainability crowd cannot get enough of it though, with articles and awards all shouting success.
