Sylvia Park Sustainability

Outside In has designed a sustainability programme that builds value for the client and its community.

The Sylvia Park retail precinct is nestled between residential and industrial zones in Mt Wellington, Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland. Our vision for this project is to maximise the sustainability opportunities for the 210,000sqm site and transform it into a ‘green corridor.’ This builds value for the client and its community. The programme includes creating a flourishing community garden at Sylvia Park. It’s used as a teaching tool for children from the local school. Outside In leads the students in hands-on sessions to build an appreciation of nature and where food comes from. Known as the ‘Eco Warriors,’ the children enjoy the opportunity so much that there is higher school attendance on their days in the garden.
