Three <strong>NZIA</strong> <strong>Resene</strong> New Zealand Award winners were further rewarded with<br />
this year’s <strong>NZIA</strong> <strong>Resene</strong> Supreme <strong>Awards</strong>. National <strong>Awards</strong> Convenor and<br />
Auckland architect Pip Cheshire said the Supreme <strong>Awards</strong> are confirmation for<br />
the winning architects that they have produced something very special. “The<br />
winning projects not only meet all the demands, qualities, and values of<br />
architecture, but they ultimately move the spirit. The architects can be proud<br />
of the fact that they’ve each created a piece of architecture that makes the<br />
blood pump a bit faster when you experience it.”<br />
The three <strong>2007</strong> Supreme Award winning projects are:<br />
St Mary’s<br />
Peter Beaven Architect Ltd<br />
Stanley Bay House<br />
Geoff Richards Architects Ltd<br />
Kaitawa Rd House, Otaki<br />
by Dave Launder Architect<br />
Simply straddled log-like across a watercourse, the Kaitawa Rd House’s extended<br />
linear form responds strongly and deliberately to the striated landscape, climate,<br />
agricultural buildings and restricted access to the river valley. Cavalier and<br />
cunning, this environmentally hardworking house challenges current construction<br />
practice as it actively participates with the elements in the rural paddock.<br />
Torpedo Bay House<br />
RTA Studio<br />
Trinity Apartments<br />
Architectus<br />
Waitangi Park<br />
Athfield Architects Limited in association<br />
with Wraight and Associates Ltd<br />
Westmere House<br />
Fearon Hay Architects Ltd<br />
Waitangi Park, Wellington<br />
a joint venture between Athfield Architects Limited and Wraight and<br />
Associates Ltd<br />
After controversial beginnings, Waitangi Park’s robust design is now an integral<br />
piece of Wellington’s waterfront landscape that has been embraced by the<br />
whole city, a dense layering of rich ideas; historical, cultural, ecological, ESD<br />
features and mixed recreational spaces for a diverse range of users.<br />
<strong>2007</strong> <strong>NZIA</strong> Enduring <strong>Awards</strong> for <strong>Architecture</strong>:<br />
Alington House (1962): Bill Alington<br />
Manning House (1960): Jack Manning<br />
Toomath House (1964): Bill Toomath<br />
Sargent House 1973 > Dunn House 2005, Remuera, Auckland<br />
by Fearon Hay Architects Ltd<br />
Awe inspiring from the first, this re-invention of a Ron Sang house skilfully<br />
integrates the tectonics of the original with the intentions of a new generation.<br />
The major decisions in siting new elements serve to complete the entire scheme<br />
in a way that wasn’t originally possible.
Good architectural design can also withstand the passing of time and<br />
still remain relevant to the current day. Three early 1960s residential<br />
homes in Wellington and Auckland - Toomath House (1964) by Bill<br />
Toomath, Alington House (1962) by Bill Alington and Manning House<br />
(1960) by Jack Manning received a <strong>2007</strong> <strong>NZIA</strong> Enduring Award for<br />
<strong>Architecture</strong>. Nearly half a century old, and flung from city hill to<br />
bush to coast respectively, these homes are still sought after for their<br />
designs incorporating the first movements towards open plan living<br />
and an emphasis on the comfort of those living within.<br />

The suite of projects in the awards programme reflects the increasing<br />
sophistication of our architecture and our society and our growing<br />
awareness and understanding of how much a well designed building<br />
can add to our environment on both aesthetic and functional levels.<br />
