2010 Waikato/Bay of Plenty Architecture Awards Winner
Former Angus, Flood and Griffiths Architectural Offices
Designed by Doug Angus in 1954, the former Angus Flood and Griffiths Office [No 1] in Hamilton is regionally significant, being the Waikato�s only purpose-built, leading edge modern architectural office of that era. Sadly, the original roofs and upper walls were lost to view when the site was redeveloped in the 1980s. However, internally the building is remarkably intact and the open plan workplace still works today over fifty years on. The building is considered to be one of the best examples of Doug Angus' early works, and remains a fitting symbol of the historic significance of the practice of Angus, Flood and Griffith.
