Te Whare Pūkākā, Massey University College of Creative Arts Workplace
This is an expression of a very different philosophy to the traditional academic workplace. By removing the separation between students and faculty members, learning takes place in a very different way than in the past. Instead of a formal reception there is a hospitality centre and although deliberately limited, the palette of colours and shapes throughout the building is vibrant. Transparent meeting rooms and curtained-off quiet spaces add an interesting utility to what is, all in all, a great adaptation of an existing building.
