2016 Auckland Architecture Awards Winner
The Art of Remembrance: St David's Church Installation
Now de-established, this large-scale display and installation of an artwork memorial required innovative architectural solutions. In a public gesture to save a building, the architects worked with artist to capture the public psyche of remembrance. The building became mannequin, carefully suited in well- considered materials and refined components, shimmering in a forgotten stretch of Khyber Pass. Although now deconstructed, small traces of the installation appeared in other projects considered for this year's awards, a further demonstration of the project's wide resonance.
