2025 Auckland Architecture Awards Winner
Grey Lynn Public Conveniences
This sensitive restoration of a public building that has quietly served the Grey Lynn community for more than 80 years has created an uplifting environment that celebrates its elegant Moderne architecture while adapting to modern-day needs. Timber-lined light wells introduce softness to a freshly planned interior where finishes honour the building's Art Deco origins while delivering resilience to a hard-working public facility. Richly detailed using a modern palette of materials sensitive to the building's heritage values, the Grey Lynn Public Conveniences fulfil their service role with newfound grace and dignity.
