2012 Wellington Architecture Awards Winner
Porirua College Refurbishment
The architects have successfully created simple ‘house’ forms, with decked learning studios grouped around a central social space. There is clear evidence of cultural considerations being given primary importance and, together with client – including student – contribution to the design process, this has generated a sense of ownership and pride. The effective airy and light-filled spaces have played a significant role in transforming attendance and learning outcomes.
