2020 Wellington Architecture Awards Winner
Harbour City Centre Annexe
Extending through the full width of a city block, the upgraded Harbour City Centre Annexe re-presents two meticulously restored façades to Wellington’s CBD. A new glazed penthouse addition is set back so as to be unseen from the street level, and new skylight floods a new central atrium and stair with daylight, delivering natural light deep into the building. Natural light also plays on textured walls in the reconfigured core stairs. This is a transformative upgrade, both preserving and modernising a heritage building, and thereby extending its life well into the future.
