2022 Waikato/Bay of Plenty Architecture Awards Winner
EWA Studio
Edwards White Architects transformed this heavily partitioned space into a light and engaging studio that expresses the firm’s creative expertise and encourages a collaborative culture. Inherent qualities of the existing concrete structure are embraced while bespoke and beautifully crafted interventions create a refined relationship between old and new. The layout features a central white pod framing meeting spaces and break out rooms that divide the kitchen and workstations. The gentle curves and vertical battened rhythm encourage fluidity between spaces which is reinforced through use of translucent drapes, loose furniture, and metal screening; softly defined spaces that allow flexibility for current and future occupants. Warm timber and natural tones compliment the raw, monochromatic palette and create a highly tactile environment which uplifts the human spirit.
