A beautiful location, a climate that encourages year-round activity, a relaxed life-style - Auckland offers enough positives to deserve a place on the list of the world’s best cities to live.
A book of 120+ images celebrates what is the essence of Auckland: A diverse and vibrant community sharing a beautiful place to live, work and play. The primary focus is on the diversity of people and cultures; geography, history and heritage are only touched on to give context.
The book is available as a limited edition of 100 numbered and signed copies plus a second edition of 20 copies for libraries and other public spaces.
A few of the photos shown below offer a small sample of the city’s variety, a few others from the book are available as limited edition prints - see ‘Shop’ for more information.
A city made for an active life-style
A (city-) beach is never too far away
Outdoor terraces are occupied year-round
Ponsonby Road - When it comes to fashion, all tastes are catered for
K’road - Auckland’s most colourful street by any measure
Newmarket - old industrial buildings revived and repurposed
Stretching the imagination a little, Newmarket may even claim its own tiny slice of Chinatown
Festivals celebrate the many different cultures (usually it’s pretty casual though)
A distinctly Pacific art scene; here South Auckland artist John Crouch at work
Beaches, art, fashion, food and entertainment. But in the end it’s the people that make the city
