Te Papa Museum
2005
:format(webp))
The Wellington waterfront competition aimed to revitalise the area with an extension to the Te Papa national museum and new mixed-use buildings. UNS proposed a design featuring zigzagging spaces with large communicative zones, allowing for the display of large works and offering varied perspectives on sculptures and paintings. These plateaus also serve as spaces for events such as vernissages, concerts, and presentations.
