Recent project
Te Rangihīroa - Otago University Residential College
Te Rangihīroa is the first purpose college built by the University of Otago in over 50 years. The college showcases a cultural narrative developed in partnership with iwi of Te Rangihīroa, Ngāti Mutunga, and from local mana whenua, Kāi Tahu. The name ‘Te Rangihīroa’ was gifted to the University in 2013, following permission from his iwi Ngāti Mutunga, and surviving family members.
The building showcases Māori design motifs and artwork inside and out, with input from Ngāti Mutunga and Kāi Tahu. It features three-dimensional facade panels with a kaokao pattern; a ceiling pattern that creates a central heartline flowing from the entry to the whare kai (dining hall); whakawai - or proverbs etched in the bluestone wall and curated taonga throughout the building to name a few.
