2022 Waikato/Bay of Plenty Architecture Awards Winner
L-Block Lecture Theatres - The University of Waikato Te Whare Wananga o Waikato (1978)
The L Block lecture theatres’ bold and brutal design have provided a robust teaching environment for the faculty and students of Waikato University. Located between the campus library and the student village, L Block has five separate lecture theatres all with tiered seating. This building has stood the test of time, with three major access ways and all theatres served by a large common foyer split over two levels. Masterful and timeless.
