David Ponting: "The three homes bring a geometric international character to the Finch Street frontage, expressed as 'rational contemporary cubes' cascading down the site. These strong sculpted forms offer flow, function and elevation to the living spaces, embracing the big north & western outlook and future-proofing the owners from ongoing development as Auckland adapts. The interiors offer an elegant, mid-century expression of urban lifestyle, designed to provide relaxed, refined comfort on the edge of our busy city".

TEN TWENTY ONE is a beautiful boutique development designed by a team dedicated to their craft - Ponting Fitzgerald Architects - to deliver eight benchmark houses offering a cutting edge, architectural sanctuary. Designed to offer the ultimate in low-maintenance designer living in an exclusive pocket of Ponsonby in a highly valued greenspace. Due to the rare urban contrast of a community garden within the park on the boundary, the northern aspect demands connection to the open reserve amenity. In contrast, the southern boundary addresses street exposure with a robust artistry, embracing the architectural opportunity that more sold forms can offer. These textural brick facades respond to the residential character of Hukanui Crescent, providing a sculpted presence that softens the scale of each angled panel. Bagged plaster boundary walls merge into the building fabric of three units to further break up the purposeful uniformity along the road frontage. This disrupted rhythm energises and differentiates each home. A unique composition of familiar elements referencing the crafted detail of nearby mid century homes scattered throughout Ponsonby. Each house has been modelled to achieve a generous north-west outlook from upper living areas. The planning of each house offers 3 generous bedrooms and a ground level utility space (4th bedroom, 2nd living or home office), providing a flexible range of home-occupancy solutions in this ever-changing world.
