We're pleased to hear this morning that our Home of the Year 2012 by Herbst Architects has picked up a New Zealand Architecture Award from the NZ Institute of Architects.
Also included in the 20 awards was Richard Naish of RTA Studio's family home in Auckland (below), a finalist in our Home of the Year award last year. The refurbishment of Wellington's Government House by Athfield Architects (below) picked up an award in the Heritage category, along with FJMT's design for the Auckland Art Gallery.
We were also delighted to see that the Lomas house in Hamilton, designed by Peter Middleton, picked up an award for Enduring Architecture (we featured Paul McCredie's photographs of it in a recent issue of HOME). This recognition for the house, unfortunately, is bittersweet, as the home's owner, Heather Lomas, passed away in March. Heather was delightful to deal with in the publication of her house and we know she would have been very pleased with the award, as she was rightfully proud of her house. Our sympathy to her friends and family.
The New Zealand Architecture Medal, the top award given by the NZ Institute of Architects, will be presented to a single project from the list below at a ceremony in Wellington in late May.
