2023 Canterbury Architecture Awards Winner
Fletcher Living - Worcester Terraces
The architect rises to the challenge of designing in a typology that’s still new for Christchurch, and the results are compelling. The design responds skilfully to its prime central city location by creating a courtyard block and presenting strong street edges. Opportunities are created for glimpses into the complex, its refined material palette and play of planting. The fruits of collaboration between the architect and wider design team are evident in the seamless integration of landscape and architecture, providing a fine balance between privacy and interaction while successfully navigating the challenges of service spaces, fire separation and on-site car parking.
