2025 New Zealand Architecture Awards Winner
George Street, Dunedin Retail Quarter
This project successfully creates a shared space spread over four blocks of George Street in central Dunedin. The streetscape successfully blends and prioritises pedestrian movements together with vehicular movements to enhance the user experience for both as well as supporting the retail environment of the central city. Elements of play are inserted into the framework which, together with planting and seating, provide moments of rest for children and adults alike. The design of the four blocks represents an engagement with local iwi and incorporates artwork into the built environment with paving and artworks. The project is a successful reinvigoration of the urban environment in Dunedin.
