Pleased to have been acknowledge in Monocle Magazine 2022 Design Awards for our recently completed Tank Park project on the Tāmaki Makaurau waterfront for Eke Panuku_ The award acknowledges the innovative adaptive re-use of the found industrial archaeology on the site which has been recovered and repurposed as social infrastructure and interactive play components. Revealing the sites DNA and weaving its marine and industrial character into the programming of a new multi-functional park and event space was central to our approach.
