Property Council New Zealand Resene Green Building Award – New Shoots / Source Cafe Pakuranga – Excellence

New Shoots Children's Centre & Source Café Pakuranga received the Resene Green Building Excellence Award at last night's Rider Levett Bucknall Property Industry Awards.

Special thanks goes to New Shoots Children's Centre, Source Cafe and Establish for making this project a reality. This was truly a collaborative project that delivers outstanding sustainable outcomes not only for the environment but also for the community, socially and culturally.

The biophilic design features a continuous tree-like timber veranda, with vines growing up the posts that will, in time, create a foliage canopy filtering the sunlight through to the rooms and sheltered outdoor areas.
