Preservation, protection and promotion of architectural practice records can support scholarship and stimulate discussion about what makes good design in our built environment.
Now embarking on this epic project, the Architectural Centre is working to establish an independent archive of Aotearoa New Zealand’s architecture. This project aims to:
- Collect and digitising paper records
- Collect digital-born (CAD) records
- Develop best practice guides and tools for existing practices and institutions
- Work with large firms and institutions to design publicly searchable, nationwide aggregating database focused on architectural topics and material.
