NZIA 2016 Gold Medal Tour
City Gallery by architecture+.
Te Wharewaka o Poneke-Te Raukura on Wellington waterfront.
Conservation House by architecture+.
Stuart Gardyne, a director of Wellington practice architecture+ and the latest recipient of the New Zealand Institute of Architects’ Gold Medal, will give a series of presentations across New Zealand about his work in March.
Stuart was awarded the Gold Medal – the Institute of Architects’ premier individual honour – for an outstanding body of work including the conversion of Wellington Public Library in City Gallery, and the later extension of the Gallery.
Other significant design projects undertaken by Stuart include Te Wharewaka o Poneke-Te Raukura on Wellington waterfront, Spark Central, Conservation House, Pataka-Porirua Museum of Arts, and Hutt City administration building. In his presentations Stuart will also discuss award-winning residential buildings such as Morrison’s Bush Cabin and Ponatahi House.
Stuart established architecture+ in the late 1980s and first made a name for himself in the early 1990s with City Gallery Wellington. He returned to City Gallery in 2006 to design an extension clad in a distinctive rusted metal skin, and will soon begin a third stage of work that will better integrate the building with Civic Square.
Stuart’s work spans residential, commerical and public work of all scales. He has accrued a vast amount of experience in the course of his distinguished career, and is an acute observer of the architecture scene in New Zealand.
