Would you buy a cabin made from construction waste?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

It started off as a rubbish idea - or an idea about what to do with rubbish - and 17 months later, it’s a architecturally-designed transportable studio cabin with, at the time of writing, a more than $5000 bid on auction website TradeMe.

The studio is the brainchild of Nine Thirty Architecture director John Hayes, who told the Waikato Times the inspiration came in the wake of seeing some neighbouring homes demolished.

Poll: Are domestic flights with Air NZ out of your budget?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

A Tauranga man has filed a complaint with the Commerce Commission, claiming that due to dynamic pricing, it’s cheaper for him to fly to Los Angeles than to book a flight for his daughter from Tauranga to Wellington.

Do you think their pricing needs addressed to encourage more people to fly?

🧐 Alright, Brainiacs—Who’s Up for a Challenge? 👀

Riddler from The Neighbourly Riddler

I know all the secrets, I hear every tale;
I’m where neighbours gather, no detail is stale;
I’m not alive, but I bring news to light—
in the morning, at noon, or late at night—
What am I?
