Language: English
Structured by region, this guide looks at both historical and modern buildings - from Māori meeting houses to colonial villas, and from Brutalist landmarks to cutting-edge sustainable design and experimental timber construction.
The 200 buildings gathered here reflect centuries of cultural exchange, the resilience of a society shaped by migration and biculturalism, and the challenges of building in earthquake-prone terrain.Interviews with leading practitioners and scholars provide further insights into the politics of identity, the legacy of colonialism, and the search for sustainable solutions, in particular to the problem of affordable housing, in the twenty-first century.
A must-have companion for architects, planners, and travellers alike, this architectural guide situates New Zealand's buildings within the global discourse while remaining attentive to its unique local traditions and innovations.
