VUW Executive Offices
About
Tucked behind the Murray building of Victoria University’s dense urban campus, the exquisitely carved Te Herenga Waka Marae needed a gateway and sheltered walkway to guide visitors to the meeting house. Working with master carver Takirirangi Smith, Tennent Brown developed a series of lightweight sails that create a delicate overhead procession from the strong traditional gateway through to the Marae.
Ongoing additional work with this project has been to install sprinklers making the Marae fit for overnight sleeping, and developing neighbouring toilet facilities.

About the
Professional
Tennent Brown is concerned with people, how our buildings and environments will affect their experience. We design to uplift the quality of life, of work, play and wellbeing of those the buildings serve. Architecture is built around people, and every design is an individual's or organisation’s story: their hopes and aspirations for a building that is their own.
People entrust us with realising some expression of themselves, to translate that into built form. We take that seriously. Ours is an architecture of listening and understanding: a humanist architecture.
