WHAT TO EXPECT
The palettes
Every palette and finish at Maplewood has been chosen for its durability, character and connection to place.
Materiality is central to the identity of Maplewood. From brick, timber cladding and corrugated roofing through to the interior finishes and details, every element contributes to a layered palette of texture, warmth and depth that reflects the surrounding landscape and the simplicity of rural forms.
Five palettes that give the street variety without uniformity, each distinct and all at ease alongside one another.
Palettes are spread across the site deliberately rather than grouped by street so the variation feels natural rather than planned. Designed to settle into the landscape, these materials will continue to gain character over time.
Dark Scoria
The most grounded of the five, this palette is anchored by the deep, earthy warmth of a Scoria roof. Layered with ash brick and soft greys, it creates a rich, enduring presence within the Waikato landscape.

Dark
The Dark palette shares its bones with Dark Scoria, trading earthy warmth for a more unified expression. A composition of tonal layered greys that feels timeless, understated and quietly assured.

Contrast
Sitting between the light and dark palettes, darker detailing is balanced with lighter masonry and cladding. Layered and restrained, it creates a home with quiet presence.

Light Lichen
Light Lichen is defined by warmth rather than contrast. Earthy, muted tones are balanced with warm timber and white brick, creating a palette that feels open, calm and naturally at home in the Waikato landscape.

Light
A pared-back counterpart to Light Lichen, soft neutrals are balanced with warm timber and white brick, creating a palette that feels bright, warm and quietly refined.
