2016 Canterbury Architecture Awards Winner
EA Networks Centre, Ashburton
Situated on a terrace alongside the Ashburton River, this sporting facility for mid-Canterbury should be a catalyst for the development of a wider recreation precinct. This building, with its heroic canopy and timber supporting structure, is destined for regional icon status. Success here is multi-faceted, and apparent in the cost-effective materials interwoven with local materials, the sustainable features and the abundant access to natural light. This confidently planned and detailed building is well supported by the local sporting community.
