2012 New Zealand Architecture Awards Winner
Auckland Art Gallery Toi o Tāmaki
With perseverance and commitment the Architects have worked through the issues and surmounted the difficulties attendant on conserving and adding to a significant public building. The structure of the existing 1888 building has been strengthened, successive accretions have been removed and galleries have been restored to their original glory. Most impressively, the Architects have achieved a flow through the entire Art Gallery while acknowledging the distinctive character of its two constituent parts, old and new.
