2009 Auckland Architecture Awards Winner
Auckland War Memorial Museum
This bold intervention responds to a challenging brief using a characteristically New Zealand design strategy and aesthetic. A handcrafted timber ‘artifact’ houses an auditorium, two teaching rooms, plant and service rooms, as well as an events centre on top. It is placed within the existing museum courtyard, set to stand free of the surrounding heritage fabric yet aligned with the formal geometries of the existing architecture.
