2011 Auckland Architecture Awards Winner
St Thomas Chapel in St Matthew in-the-City (2)
This jewel-like box, with its highlights of lit onyx, honours and respects the existing architecture of St Matthew-in-the-City while asserting its own merits. The chapel, with its carefully considered steel details – including bespoke door handles – married to the existing structure, exhibits a quiet confidence. It is delicately and thoughtfully sited in the historic church.
