2009 Canterbury Architecture Awards Winner
Riccarton Tea House
An Edwardian structure of beauty has been restored to its former elegance through a process of care, consideration and single-minded dedication. Much management and technical skill was required of the architect to identify the most appropriate methods of modernising the service areas of the Category 2 building without compromising its integrity. The result is a delight to experience. By finding the appropriate balance of preservation and modernisation, the future of this heritage building has been secured.
