2022 Canterbury Architecture Awards Winner

New Brighton Surf Lifesaving & Bathing Club

This new home for New Zealand’s oldest surf club provides modern facilities for the club and community while creating a sense of belonging and connection to the environment and local history. The challenges of the site location and tough environmental conditions have been embraced to craft a building with robust, durable materials. The building engages with the public on the seaward side by providing a seating platform sculpted from the stepped building edge. Sheltered outdoor spaces have been included on the western side to provide further spaces to be enjoyed by the club and community.
