2012 Auckland Architecture Awards Winner
BLENNZ Campus Redevelopment
A clear architectural vision has produced a building accessible to those whose vision is impaired. The research that has gone into this project is evident, as is the empathy of the architects’ approach: the result is an inspiring building understood and experienced through touch and sound. A curved form, convex against a busy street, concave to embrace the landscape, relates well to the scale of the site. Material selection is sensitive, detailing is carefully considered, and sustainable principles have been pursued throughout the project.
