BEST Awards 2024

LandLAB were pleased to receive three ‘BEST Awards’ in the Spatial category from the Designers Institute of New Zealand (DINZ) for Microsoft House Plaza, Queen Street Tactical Urbanism and GOLD for the Quay Street Upgrade (pictured).

The vision for Quay Street is to provide an immersive, emergent, dynamic and memorable waterfront street that amplifies the overlapping ecologies of nature, city, economy and culture at the intersection of ‘Tāmaki’ (city) and the ‘Waitematā’ (sea). An innovative, sustainable and adaptable street that reveals its past, provides a catalyst for its future and seeds a new dynamic waterfront destination – a place that is distinctly Tāmaki Makaurau.

Client: Auckland Transport/Council Collaborators: Aurecon (Civil/Structure/3 Waters) E3BW (Lighting) Stellar Projects (Project Management) Mark Potini/Ted Nagasaki (Ngāti Tamaoho) Rueben Kirkwood (Ngai Tai Ki Tāmaki). Tessa Harris (Ngai Tai Ki Tāmaki), Richelle Kahiu-McConnell, Chairmaine Bailie.
