Auckland Council and Pacific Steel Collaboration


















Auckland Council and Pacific Steel are beginning a collaboration to restore a local community park, the Blake Street Reserve in Favona. Senior lecturer Matthew Bradbury, who was invited to help provide design input into the project, suggested that the team work with a senior BLA undergraduate, Carlos Charlton to develop the design work as part of his final year negotiated studies project. Carlos was excited to be working on a real world design project in which his design would be build. Carlos has visited the site twice and met representatives from Auckland Council, Mark Read and Pacific Steel, Estelle Curd. Carlos also visited the Pacific Steel plant to look the range of products that PC made to discuss how they might be incorporated into his design master plan. The next stage of the project is to work with the local community to help them develop their ideas about what they would like to see for the park.
