2010 Auckland Architecture Awards Winner
Auckland Heliport
Lightness and precision are the hallmarks of this giant, somewhat austere, helicopter container. The design allows for views of the helicopters and the workers inside the building from the public walkway that fringes the Manukau harbour inlet. The banality sometimes associated with grid heavy projects has been circumvented by carefully managed geometry. The detailing is refined and precise.
