2015 Wellington Architecture Awards Winner
Massey University Wellington Library
The physical collection of the library and a range of reading rooms and individual and group study areas have been inserted into the existing structure of a 1950s building and a series of later additions. These fixed elements are connected by more open and flexible spaces for informal use allowing for different degrees of privacy. The staff area is not separated from the public space of the library, breaking down the usual barrier between librarians and students, and reinforcing the openness of the library.
