2009 Waikato/Bay of Plenty Architecture Awards Winner
DOC Viewing Shelter - Bridal Veil Falls
This shelter’s sculptural form echoes the natural landforms around it and provides a creative response to a unique design challenge. Its inherent simplicity complements the bush setting and ensures that the viewing platform enhances the experience of visiting the waterfall. Clever use of heavy and light supporting struts adds to the impression that the shelter is suspended above the ground, creating an intimate, ethereal presence.
