2023 Nelson/Marlborough Architecture Awards Winner
Cellar One, Cloudy Bay Vineyards
Cellar One represents a celebration of the winemaker's art, with process being evident as a design driver, giving insight into the nuances of wine production while expressing mechanics and equipment geometries. Teamwork between architect, engineer, contractor and winemaker is obvious in the clever insertion of the glass viewing pod suspended over the production hall in a re-purposed agricultural space. The adjacent tasting galleries are artfully crafted to display the finished product. Structural interventions are clearly expressed and give new life and light to an otherwise rigid concrete shell. Finely crafted timber joinery adds to the refined detailing.
