National Design Awards 2005

First time entrant Paul Stanley-Joblin of Christchurch claimed the coveted Supreme Award at the 2005 ADNZ/Origin National Design Awards announced at the Queenstown conference on Friday, 14 October.

Paul won the prestigious award for his design of a new house in Deans Avenue opposite Hagley Park, which also netted him the New Single Residential Dwelling award, First Time Entrant award and the Colin Stanley Memorial Award (The People's Choice). He also received a highly commended in the Commercial Interiors section for Coffee Culture at Westfield Mall in Riccarton.

The national awards this year were judged by: Michael Wyatt (Queenstown architect); John Russ (national sales manager; Gill Wall, Carter Holt Harvey Wood Products; Liz Trainor (Resene Paints); and Rob Campion (Architectural Profiles).

The judges congratulated Paul on his skills, describing the Christchurch property as a landmark, high impact building.

This house demonstrates a high quality of design and an excellent use of the site, which takes full advantage of the outlook and corner position. The view of the park can be enjoyed from all rooms.

Judges said Paul showed remarkable maturity for a first time entrant.

Another Christchurch member, Marcus Stufkens of Loxodonta Design won the Residential Multi-Unit Dwelling Award for his work on the Bridgeport Apartments in Tauranga.

These apartments were thoroughly thought-out architecturally, without resorting to repetition and we liked the subtle use of colour and shape, the judges said.

Marcus showed his versatility, picking up the Bathroom and Resene Colour awards for the Fakir House in Christchurch.

This work showed a wonderful mix of ancient and modern. It blended well with the marine environment and made great statements with colour on the architectural features.

The judges applauded the bathroom design, where Marcus created a look of opulence and serenity despite the space limitations.

A house in Tauranga also earned Marcus a Highly Commended in the Resene Colour Award.

Meanwhile, in the commercial category Neil Keiser of Cambridge claimed top honours for a warehouse in Airport Road, Tamahere.

Judges said Neil made good use of a difficult site.

A bold, simple idea was carried through in the detail with a very light touch. It gives the right signals for a fashion-conscious client.

Neil was also Highly Commended in the same category for a Cambridge cafe.

Peter Wynyard of Christchurch won the Commercial Interiors Award for his fit-out for the Unlimited School in the city.

Not a traditional school by any means. The design is taken to a whole new level, suitable for intensive study.

Graham Sawell of Pyramidz Architecture, in Warkworth, received the Residential Alterations and Additions Award for the Newman-Sinclair House in Rotorua with judges describing the extension as interesting and generous.

Tushka Glintmeyer of Space Architecture in Wellington was named Residential Interiors winner for a home on the Mana Esplanade which used hard-edging materials, and an aggressive texture balanced by soft lighting.

Hamilton's Noel Jessop claimed the Kitchen Award for the Mark Residence in the same city, which judges applauded as having innovation beyond its years.

Two new award categories were introduced this year. Philip Bidwell Architecture of Christchurch won the 3-D Computer Generated award. Fraser Gillies of Lines Design, Auckland was the inaugural winner of the Practice Award, recognising his meritorious contribution to ADNZ and architectural design.

Stephen Ansley of Christchurch won the Executive Award for his alterations on the Wright House. The national executive judges said that Steve's work on this project was another example of his consistently high quality alteration design skills.
