walked on it! showing Aino having a strong sense of social
responsibility and a point of view deeply respected
by Alvar. One of the film’s narrators describes her
COMPOSITE STEEL FLOORING SYSTEMS as the “necessary balancing element” in Aalto’s
otherwise “bohemian and erratic” life.
As Wainwright points out, Aino Aalto was
both a qualified architect and a trained carpenter,
who designed many of the Aalto buildings’
interiors and was involved in creating the
pioneering bentwood furniture that made Aalto
a famous name internationally. She was the chief
designer and managing director of Artek, the
company founded in 1935 that produced their
range of textiles, lamps and glassware. “That
ribbed Ikea tumbler in your kitchen cupboard?
It’s an Aino Aalto knock-off,” says Wainwright.
One of the film’s narrators sums up the
dilemma: “Regardless of how the drawings are
signed, they clearly worked as a team. We’ll never
know where the division is between the two.”
True but, as Suutari shows, we now know Aino
was, in fact, a crucial part of the Aalto oeuvre
and never received that credit.
Aalto addresses this lack of recognition for
female architects worldwide, especially when they
are associated with great men, as do initiatives
like the Couplings’ Tactic, which critically maps
architectural couplings, raising questions about
the intimate and creative collaboration behind
architectural legacies. There’s a wider question, too,
about the prevailing view that great architecture is
produced by a great genius, predominantly male,
when we all know that architecture has been and
always will be a collaborative act. And a talent of
the order of Aino Aalto should always have been
recognised. Credit where credit is due.

46 BUILDINGS, ONE WEEKEND
This month, Open Christchurch celebrates
some of Ōtautahi’s most exceptional
architecture by opening 46 buildings to the
public across the weekend of 15–16 May.
Run by Te Pūtahi Centre for Architecture
and City Making, Open Christchurch will
offer access to culturally, historically and
architecturally significant buildings as well as
some not normally open to the public, such as
Sir Miles Warren’s modernist College House
and the heritage buildings of Christ’s College.
Also featured during the two-day event will
be: children’s architecture-themed workshops
at the Arts Centre and Tūranga; expert tours
of buildings by the architects and engineers
behind their designs, including the Stranges
& Glendenning Hill building, the St Andrew’s
College Centennial Chapel, the Madras Street
Townhouses and the Chen Anselmi Units; and
guided walks, exhibitions and garden tours.
Most of the events are free although a small
donation may be requested at some.

on the western side of the CBD will provide tenants
with a number of geographical advantages, including

GOOD
FOUNDATIONS
The end of four years of City Rail Link-
related closure, construction and restoration
was celebrated on 13 April, with Auckland’s
historic Chief Post Office (CPO) being
‘returned to the city’, ready to resume its
role as the front door for the Britomart
Transport Centre.
The reopening followed a complex
engineering feat to remove original support
columns out of the way of the City Rail Link
(CRL) tunnels and transfer the CPO’s weight
to new foundations without damaging the
historic building.
CRL Delivery Manager Scott Elwarth says
that transferring the weight of the 109-year-
old, Category A heritage-listed building onto
temporary foundations to keep it protected
during construction was one of the most
complex engineering challenges seen in
New Zealand.
“We had to work in some pretty confined
spaces, under 14,000 tonnes of masonry
building, to excavate reclaimed land below sea
level with the Waitematā Harbour just across
the road,” says Elwarth.
Temporary closure of the CPO in 2017
followed months of detailed planning, design
and modelling, involving CRL, its contractors,
Downer NZ and Soletanche Bachy (DSBJV),
Auckland Transport, Auckland Council and
Heritage New Zealand.
Work began in mid-2017 with the removal
of the first layers of reclaimed land for a
14-metre-deep trench in lower Queen Street
in front of the CPO.
01 Firstly, 340-tonnes of steel beams were
required to span between rows of new piles

AOTEA ACTIVATOR
Urban regeneration agency Panuku Development
Auckland is partnering with Malaysian property
developers MRCB (Malaysian Resources
Corporation Berhad) to deliver retail, offices and
housing above the Aotea Station City Rail Link
(CRL) hub on the corner of Wellesley Street and
Mayoral Drive.
Concept plans by architects Woods Bagot reveal
a stepped roof, designed to ensure that sunlight
requirements in nearby Aotea Square are met,
topped with terraced foliage. The ground level
includes a landscaped lane between the site and
the neighbouring Bledisloe House and a ‘civic-
incubator space’, which can be used flexibly for
community needs.
Woods Bagot principal Bruno Mendes says
Auckland needs more active destinations to
evolve into a dynamic metropolis. “The host of
programmes in this pedestrian-friendly public realm
– with recreation, retail, office and residential spaces
– will optimise the flow of people, culture and
commerce to generate vibrancy at street level.”
Panuku sold the former car-park site, which has an
estimated gross development value of $452 million,
for $40 million. The new 21-storeyed project will
house ground-floor retail, nine levels of commercial
workspaces and more than 60 residential dwellings.
“On behalf of Auckland Council, we sought a
particular type of development partner who would
understand the rare opportunity to contribute to
the regeneration of this unique mid-town location,”
said Panuku chief executive David Rankin. “MRCB
has a long history of quality, transport-oriented
developments in Malaysia and is committed to
transforming the Mayoral Drive site to appeal to
those wanting vibrant inner-city living and a low-
carbon lifestyle in the centre of Auckland.”
Construction of Aotea Central is scheduled to
start after the completion of the CRL Aotea Station
and is due to be finished in 2024.

Architecture NZ X Resene Colour Collab

Colour is clearly integral to your work.


The use of colour can be such a simple-but-powerful tool to
invoke sensations or memories: shared collective memories
of place, nature, objects or feelings, or more personal
individual memories.

Were there any particular memories that inspired you to


choose the colours you selected for your collaboration?
In short, earth and art. I wanted to go back to the basis of
indigenous artworks that inspire me. This interest began when
I was exposed to local art as a kid, through an Aboriginal aunt
and a cousin, who was a young artist. During high school,
with their help, I curated an exhibition of local indigenous
artworks. It’s amazing to think that ochre pigments, clay and
charcoal, have been used in imagery in Australia for 50,000
years and are all dug from the artists’ land. There’s something
familiar, warm and universal to these pigments that is relevant
to the past and the present. This could be anything from
the earth, bricks, burnt wood, rusted metal, autumn leaves,
kōkōwai carvings, and so on.

They reveal a basis for reading anew the architecture

The most prominent feature of the style is the
ornamentation of the entablature. The triglyph pattern
is shown in typical fashion as simplified vertical shafts
depicting a thigh bone chopped into three portions
and wrapped in fat, and just below are blood droplets
known as regula.1 These elements signify that the
entablature of Greek architecture was once a sacrificial
altar. The bloody reminder is further magnified by the
friezes depicting violent battle scenes, commemorating
the museum’s founding as a war memorial museum. N

would stand away from the existing building in the
Masterpieces Gallery or were made to lodge into the
existing crevices of the neoclassical building, as in the
Lifeways Gallery. When it came to the South Atrium,
Lane determined that the operative motif would be a
bowl that is “chunky, ripe and bursting at the seams…
a container of information, so it was important to
make the design strong, but approachable, and the
light spilling into the space helps achieve this”.2
The original design was a cylindrical form,
suspended on posts standing clear of the existing
building, to house the information centre. Later
sketches clearly show a bowl shape suspended from
four distinct legs. Around 2002, I visited Lane’s office,
which was then in Bowen Avenue, to find a Fijian kava
tanoa on his desk. Knowing that he collected Pacific
tapa cloths, I thought nothing of it until the new 01
atrium opened in 2006. Noel Lane has never spoken
directly of how he conjured up a Polynesian artefact at
the museum’s heart. Still, the sketches and the nature
of the Fijian kauri cladding bear witness to a desire to
incorporate a cross-cultural narrative to make a new
mythology, fitting for the 21st century.
At the same time that Jasmax and its team won
the limited competition for the master planning
and the refurbishment of the South Atrium in 2014,
I became a Pacific architecture consultant to the
museum; I had held a similar role in 1998–2000,
when the Pacific galleries and collection were being
renewed. The museum had put in place the Teu
le Vā Pacific dimension in 2012, to facilitate the
relationship between the Pacific communities and
their tāonga within the space. I began advising the
museum on the meaning of the bowl, or tanoa, that
was then clearly evident to me in the South Atrium. 02
After consultation with Rau Hoskins, Jasmax, mana
whenua, Te Taumata-ā-Iwi Māori Committee, the
Pacific Advisory Group to the museum and important
Pacific knowledge-holders about the aspirations of
Pacific people to have a proper place in the museum,
the discussion turned into a way for indigenising the
museum. That is when common stories were explored
as ways to name and fix the South Atrium’s identity
as the encounter between Māori and Pacific people
in their myth-histories connected to the origin of the
world in Te Ao Mārama, and, at the heart of this, is a
temple made from an oversized tanoa.
From then on, Jasmax and the team were
advantageous in their approach to reveal the extent
of the tanoa’s parabolic form fully; the form had
been partly obscured by a narrow, curved stairwell
positioned to the left of the tanoa and the encroaching
temporary exhibition gallery space that was then
02 03
located beneath, covering half of the curved form.

58 Architecture New Zealand


IN THEIR SUBMISSION FOR THIS YEAR’S NZIA
Awards, the architects of the transformed South
Atrium and adjoining galleries of Tāmaki Paenga Hira,
Auckland War Memorial Museum, make much of the
golden mean. They talk of the 1929 colonial colossus
on the hill of Pukekawa in the Auckland Domain as a
great example of neoclassical architecture: a building
to be much admired for its proportions. Never mind
the somewhat absurd idea of importing an alien Greek
Doric temple form, emblematic of the origins of
European culture, here to Aotearoa.
The proportional framework is, of course, the golden
mean: a “geometric discipline of sublime proportion”,
underpinning classical architecture and “a naturally
02
occurring fractal, or never-ending geometric pattern,
with specific proportions that pleasingly resonate with
the human sense of aesthetics”, say the architects. Their

it everywhere self-similar – that constant angle for most
species of nautilus is not a match with the golden ratio.
Such inconvenient maths doesn’t stop the architects.
Analysis of the existing building finds the golden
ratio (1:1.618) everywhere: from the elevations to the
proportions of the portico, the height of the entablature
to the Doric columns and the cornice datum running
through the entablature. It’s also in the plan – the
golden rectangle proportioning many of the original
gallery spaces. No surprise then that the architects
decide to extend the ratio into the design of the
southern atrium, “creating a deep and tangible harmony
between the new and old museum architecture”. Apply
the mean throughout the planning and detailing and
“the resultant architecture is symptomatic of the
proportions of natural beauty”. Job done.
If only. The problem with this line of thinking is that
it assumes an ideology of inherent, universal beauty
and an underlying code that architects have to crack to
unlock the essential truth of beauty. The impossibility

of this ideal is vividly on show in the southern atrium

in the most anti-neoclassical architecture one can


imagine – a hanging bowl-like form of Fijian kauri
in the centre of what was once a D-shaped courtyard
added to the museum’s rear in the 1960s. The ancient
Greeks would be mortified. As Richard Francis-Jones
of Australian firm Francis-Jones Morehen Thorp
(FJMT) puts it, the bowl (now reclaimed as a tanoa)
added by Lane Priest Architects in 2006 is a world
apart from the neoclassical museum. “It is almost
the complete antithesis and there’s no connection
between them.” Francis-Jones, in collaboration with
Jasmax, designTRIBE and Salmond Reed, says the
challenge was how to bring such opposite geometries
together. Use the golden mean. But why bother?
As the new design reveals, the South Atrium
Te Ao Mārama, with its ripe, bulbous bowl now more
resplendent and bursting at the seams than ever, is a
world of the living. The northern half of the museum
remains the world of the dead, of the past: a world
emblematic of a bygone era weighted down by the
solemnity of being a war memorial and carrying the
attendant sins of colonial oppression.
There is a meeting of sorts of these two disparate
worlds in the way north and south now connect via
two gently curved side aisles that dance their way
divergently from the circular tanoa space into more
processional corridors arriving in the northern skylit

droplet-like profile. Francis-Jones says the inspiration
was the paper nautilus spiral, which generated
wave-like, biomorphic forms used in a series to
create a softness and an organic quality – something
adjustable and accommodating to layer into “the strict
rectilinear and axial geometry of this neoclassical
and neo-colonial building”. This is a new order of
column of a most unconventional kind: sometimes
the columnar fins morph into pivoting double doors,
or the column fin elongates into a thin spiral piece
of wall, then sprouts another circular column at its
end. The nautilus columns are deployed in a variety
of series: as a permeable semicircular curtain to
the northern perimeter of the tanoa, providing a
backdrop for a stage, or as a screen for projecting a

now a glowing, compass-like circle of light. To the
west and east of the tanoa, the nautilus spiral fins
delineate lift lobbies and, to the north, they form
two permeable, angled walls, either side of the
goods service lift, providing gallery spaces.
At the southern entrance, the curvy columns
perform their most intricate snaking contortions,
beginning with two beautifully carved tōtara
pivoting doors marking the formal entrance to
the atrium space through the southern leg of the
tanoa. While the space to the northern front of
the museum – the Grand Foyer and Māori Court
– continues to support more formal pōwhiri
processes, much care has been taken with the 17
reconfigured South Atrium to enable it to support
more informal events, including flexible pōwhiri
and whakatau spaces. Longer term, one has the
sense that the Te Ao Mārama, clearly set up to
be a flexible space catering to a variety of events,
is destined to become the new front door of the
museum. Arrival from the south provides a totally
different museum experience and the ideal way to
access the newly created set of special exhibitions
galleries to the east and the interactive Tāmaki
Herenga Waka galleries to the west. From here,
school groups can also take stairs to the first floor
and the revamped Imaginarium space around the
tanoa, where the flexible learning space inside the
bowl has also had a significant refurbishment.
Francis-Jones likens the design process of the 18
South Atrium to archaeology. “You walked in there
and thought, ‘what a mess’. You couldn’t even tell
that the bowl was suspended any more. Somehow,
at this point of tension where the bowl came down,
there was a reception desk of all things.” Rationally,
he says, it all made sense but seemed to take away
all meaning from the space. “Much of what we did
was a bit like digging in the dirt, digging around,
uncovering it all and trying to reveal it.”
The reclaimed hanging tanoa, now surrounded
by a new order of nautilus columns with three of its
leg supports now in contrast to the timber bowl, is
indeed a revelation – a ripe, decolonising cultural
force disrupting the centre of a neoclassical building.
The ancient Greeks would be mortified.

“This story of adaptation and evolution resonated
with us,” explains Ignite project lead Nathan Carey.
“Just as the Māori people had to change, so, too, does
the museum. And we started thinking about materials
that communicate this idea of change: presenting
layers of time, contrasting textures to convey
progression, the juxtaposition of old and new, and
storytelling through the adaptation of materials.”
Where its predecessor had been long and deep
in plan, with plenty of wall space, the new store’s
crescent-shaped floor plan is wide and shallow, with
heritage windows lining the length of both interior
and exterior walls. “We had to be clever about using
the spaces in between the windows,” says Carey, of
the outer walls. “They are such a beautiful feature,
you have to think carefully about what will be
merchandised between them.”
The windows have been framed with recycled rimu,
crafted by Wilson: some as carved panels, others
featuring a stepped poutama pattern, which, Wilson
explains, is a metaphor for the cycles of human
endeavour or ascending stages of growth. “A vertical
step represents the challenge and stretch to engage
with and master new skills, while the horizontal
component suggests a plateau of assimilation and
consolidation.” The deliberate, unresolved termination
at the top indicates that learning is a never-ending,
lifelong journey.
The locally sourced reclaimed rimu surrounding
the windows flows through to countertops, flooring

belying a challenging build. “We worked closely

Across the atrium to the east, in a space that mirrors


that of the museum store, is Tuitui, one of architect
Jack McKinney’s latest hospitality designs. It’s
undeniably a step up from the previous incarnation –
more of a pole vault – with first impressions closer to
fine dining than to meals for over-excited little people.
McKinney’s grand gesture is an impossibly long,
crescent-shaped service counter, which runs almost
the entire length of the bistro: “about 16 metres, give
or take”. Topped with richly veined, dark-green marble
and evocative of a beautifully carved piece of pounamu,
the sculptural island performs several functions across
its trajectory. Offering intimate double-sided seating
at the northern tapered end, it progressively widens to
a central bar area and then finishes off with café and
counter food at the kitchen end. A wide brass band
wraps around the top, “borrowed from the bowl in
the atrium”, and mosaic-clad, scalloped sections form
the base, referencing the museum’s neoclassical Doric
columns while at the same time providing pockets of
enclosure for diners.
The fluted profile is continued on Tuitui’s two end
walls, this time in panelled Canadian hemlock, oven-
baked to protect the soft wood from harbouring mites,
which could run amuck in the museum collection, but
with the pleasant side-effect of a smoky fragrance.
The materiality of the grand service counter is
repeated at the maître d’ station and the brass banding
is also deployed on the 16 tables dotted across the
polished concrete floor. McKinney had hoped to hang
reproductions of exhibits between the east-facing
windows on the exterior wall, “to bring the collection
into the dining space”, but, in their place, are four
arresting, oversized photographs referencing both kai 03
and tuitui, of which the latter translates to weaving,
binding and bringing together.
Tuitui owner Brian Sewell says that where the
interior sit-down, table-service offering is “slightly
more grown-up” and designed with international
visitors in mind (he and McKinney modelled it on a
New York diner theme), the more informal café space
in the atrium is ideal for families, providing children
with room to play and, presumably, to make a little
more mess.
What McKinney has created here is perhaps more
pared back than we would expect from previous form
– he admits that it’s the clear lobster bisque that has
come from the seafood chowder he started with –
but he also points out that the heritage aspect of the
building required the lightest touch possible so as not
to mask the beautiful, historical elements. Treading
lightly aside, the colossus-like scaling of the Doric
column-inspired counter at the heart of Tuitui certainly
04
leaves an impression.

of would-be suppliers pitching products, bringing stuff
in and out of the anthill. This village atmosphere is
also very suitable for what is, actually, a New Zealand-
owned cooperative. And there is no evil emperor
here either; there aren’t too many, if any, very big
corporate workplaces in the country where you bump
into the boss in shirtsleeves talking to a colleague
at a table while a couple of warehouse guys in high-
vis are catching a few quick zzz’s on a couch nearby.
Yes, we are all one team, those of us who work in big
organisations often hear, but this building is physical
evidence of walking that kind of talk.
The ground floor’s right wing is a series of meeting
spaces, with sliding folding walls that allow a variety of
configurations. It’s a three-storey building at its apex
and upstairs is pretty much open plan as well, although
more secure than the ground floor, with a variety of
workspaces. The great thing on the upper levels is that
the first floor opens out at both ends onto the grassed
berms with sunny outdoor barbecue and social spaces,
under the vast barrel vault of the roof swooping down
low to shelter them. For a big building, it is a very easy
place to navigate, always giving you a sense of where
you are in one great body, rather than getting lost in a
stack of floors full of cubicles for human resource units.
This vaulted structure is an umbrella and hub for the
people of many supermarkets and other entities around
the North Island.
Few of us are fans of big corporates and I am always
keen to bite the hand that feeds me when it is one
of a duopoly that ratchets down what actual food
producers earn, to bring us Good Value and Great
Deals Every Day or whatever it is. But, personally, I
still favour at least two outlets of the Foodstuffs family
over the competitor because they give Airpoints.
So, I’m giving Foodstuffs Airpoints, too, for taking
a chance on a young firm of architects who were
quite open with their client that they had never done
anything like this before. And Airpoints, too, for the
Airport Authority who, as with RTA’s Hellmann, was a
client as well and committed to a big, brave idea for a
building. The airport actually owns this building, as it
does the Hellmann facility, and has a long-term lease
arrangement with Foodstuffs so both were involved
in the planning and development of the place, and
the specification and per-square-metre rate were
quite locked down. It got 5 Green Stars, too, so extra
Airpoints for that. Like Hellmann, this is an indication
of just what you can do if you don’t accept that design

The whare toi, lit by clear plastic roofing, has been
subdivided into two spaces, with one containing toilets
and a lab/meeting room at the back. The larger space
has a mezzanine housing a kitchen and meeting room.
Below these are two rooms for display and weaving,
with a timber floor raised above the concrete floor of
the original shed and separated from it by perforated
plywood sliding screens, again on full-length tracks.
The apparent simplicity of this space is deceptive. It
is carefully but not obsessively detailed, with spatial
differences achieved by changes in floor and ceiling. 04
The exposed portal frames of the original shed of
the whare toi (what a sensible way of spanning the
ubiquitous portal frame) are continued in the new
whare waka. However, the river-side wall is angled
to align with the water’s edge. This means that the
resulting diagonal ridge turns the gabled roof at one end
to a shed roof at the other. This river side is completely
open, spanned with a steel truss, and a gantry extends
out over the Waiarohia Stream to launch canoes. The
potential complexity of this is resolved with the gantry
propped and strutted from the steelwork in a way that
might offend structural purists but is solved in a relaxed
display of Kiwi pragmatism such as we see on building
05
sites all the time. Almost Gehry. The wall between deck
and whare waka is covered in vitex in various lengths
and sizes with random gaps. Not quite random, because
the idea is that the canoe-making activities in the shed
can be observed through the gaps at all eye levels. The
other two walls to the shed are 100mm x 50mm vertical
battens at 200mm centres.
The result is an easy openness, with a restrained
materials palette of steel and unfinished vitex timber.
EAST – WHARE WAKA
Inside the whare toi, blonded plywood is fixed with
cups and screws everywhere. No Gib board. Nothing
is done here for effect, and flashiness was specifically
not wanted by the clients, nor is there a tokenistic use
of Māori forms or decoration. The carving and weaving
are activities rather than ornament. It is such a relief
to see architecture not struggling for effect, intending
instead to house. The job reportedly came in under

also creates space. It is integrated into its landscape,
shaping the exterior as much as the exterior shapes the
interior. Wide eaves moderate sun and give shelter. Four
exterior courtyards are created to follow the sun and
shelter from the wind outside as the weather changes.
There is also a crafted attention to detail with, for
example, on the outside, the playful, layered fence design
as you approach and the extra-thick roof depth (for
passive house-type insulation), visually split by spoutings
set down from the roof edge to divide and create a
shadow line around the fascia. Downpipes free stand.
On the interior, architraves extend from floor to the
ceilings and accommodate a thicker door head between
them, expressing the lintels visually and creating panels

the architects, who have translated the brief and site

The value of this approach is also evident in the study
of past site-sensitive subdivision design, such as Turere

houses exploring the spirit of place is extended; in
this case, it is also opening our eyes to the enduring,
