The new Rangitane Cultural Centre replaces a former community hall on a prominent site in Grovetown just outside Blenheim. The brief called for a contemporary building to signify a new chapter in the history of the Rangitane people following the Crown settlement of 2012. The building contains a large hall, commercial kitchen, and meeting rooms that can be used to sleep large groups attending cultural events.

About the
Professional

Ethos
The best architecture is life-enhancing and uplifting.

Alongside the visible better-known practical aspects of the Architect’s role we strive to deliver fresh, specific solutions reflecting the unique combination of influences, attitudes and forces that come to bear on each individual project. Informed original creative thinking and communication are the core professional skills at the heart of our work.

Our objective is design excellence at all levels, from concept to detail, as part of our mission to achieve lasting, well-made, built solutions. We have respect for history and the natural environment. Subtle responses to site, context and climate are important to us. The collective experience, talent and willingness within our practice is recognised as our greatest resource.
