Te Kāhui Whaihanga New Zealand Institute of Architects (NZIA) recently announced 35 projects in the Canterbury region for the local awards programme shortlist.
The jury for the Canterbury Architecture Awards was led by Christchurch architect Huia Reriti, who was joined by fellow Christchurch architects Bernadette Muir and Daniel Sullivan, Wellington architect Anne Kelly, and Christchurch architecture designer Tobin Smith.
“Making the shortlist is a significant achievement, especially in what was a very productive year for architecture in the Canterbury Branch region,” noted Reriti.
The NZIA has noted that the COVID-19 lockdown has halted the usual jury visits to shortlisted projects. “Resumption of the visits or the adoption of alternative means of deciding award-winners are dependent on the national measures adopted to combat the COVID-19 pandemic,” the organisation says.
