- NZILA Award of Excellence / Te Karanga o te Tui — 2017
A stunning response to a complex site that still feels uniquely personable. The intervention is a strong and bold, 6.8 ha of new coastal playground.
A stunning response to a complex site that still feels uniquely personable. The intervention is a strong and bold, 6.8 ha of new coastal playground. Taking a walk (or bike ride) through Taumanu Reserve is like reacquainting yourself with a familiar yet unknown relative; the site is embraced, subtly revealing its layers, returning our focus back to the Manukau. More so it is innovative, integrating dynamic cultural, social and environmental layers, in a unique space to be celebrated by generations to come.
