2011 Western Architecture Awards Winner
Palmerston North Community House
This project exemplifies the difference an Architect can make to the life of a community. Responding to a brief shaped by the requirements of numerous user groups, and working through a complex design process, the Architect has delivered a one-stop services centre for 16 Palmerston North community organisations. Through the use of façade elements such as bright, welcoming colours, and the timber slats and the patterns on precast concrete walls that refer to the region’s human and natural history, the Architect has transcended the limitations of a very tight budget.
