2022 Nelson/Marlborough Architecture Awards Winner
Wakefield Quay Apartment
This project is a refined example of architecture that is made by taking the ordinary and making it extraordinary. The architects have moulded a fastidiously detailed, wholistic environment into the existing shell. The attention to detail is so complete that it is almost transcendent. It feels like they were aiming for perfection - always a risky approach, but in this case, it was a risk worth taking. The result is aesthetically very beautiful, but the experience is a pervading sense of calm. This level of craft only occurs with aroha, commitment, and respect. It is a testament to all involved.
