2015 Waikato/Bay of Plenty Local Awards Winner
Wintec Engineering and Trades Facility
This new home for 1000 engineering and trades students at Wintec’s Rotokauri campus emphasises a student-centred, collaborative approach to learning. This is a long life, “loose-fit” structure, which is incredibly adaptable to modern learning requirements. Overall, the composition might be described as “bones-out”, with the buildings services and structural systems left on display to aid student understanding. In effect, the building is not just a place to go and learn; it is an integrated part of the learning experience.
