Evergreen Café, Karaka

  • Client:
    Hugh Green Group
  • Location:
    Karaka, Auckland
  • Size:
    100m2

As part of Hugh Green Group’s Park Green town centre development, Evergreen Café was designed as a neighbourhood outpost on the edge of the subdivision, adjacent to the estuary. The 100m² building is modest in scale, aligning with the surrounding residential context. Its exterior features dark Eurotray-profile steel cladding and vertical timber boards chosen to complement the lush, green environment. The structure comprises two distinct modules arranged in an L-shape, anchored by a generous north-facing covered deck that opens onto a landscaped lawn. The kitchen and amenities module runs parallel to the street, enhancing visibility and signage opportunities. A small, recessed porch marks the main entrance, while an adjacent servery window opens directly from the kitchen, activating the street frontage. Upon entry, customers are welcomed by a long servery on the left, offering cabinet food and a view into the bustling kitchen. The space flows into a spacious dining area, where a raked ceiling draws the eye toward a dramatic glazed end wall, framing views of the estuary. Extensive glazing along both side walls completes a 270-degree panorama. A large sliding glass door connects the interior to the sheltered deck and sunlit lawn beyond. Evergreen Café serves as a relaxed community hub and meeting place for locals and visitors alike, offering a casual stop along the coastal path.
