2011 Canterbury Architecture Awards Winner
Timaru Courthouse Redevelopment
The Architect has successfully enhanced the community presence of the original courthouse building and cleverly integrated the complex functional requirements of a modern operating courthouse. Subtle and generous architectural gestures demonstrate awareness of, and care for, the comfort (and safety) of the users of a building that, by necessity, deals with difficult and stressful matters. Low-key sustainability features complete the picture of a well-resolved public building.
