  • Reflect Reconciliation Action Plan
    Reflect Reconciliation Action Plan November 2020 – February 2022 Architectus acknowledges Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples of this nation as the Traditional Custodians of the lands on which our company is located and where we conduct our business. We pay our respects to their Elders past, present and emerging. Architectus is committed to honoring Australian Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples’ unique cultural and spiritual relationships to the land, waters and seas and their rich contribution to society About the artwork Architectus commissioned Heather Kamarra Shearer to complete a unique art piece to support our first Reconciliation Action Plan. This artwork is both a representation of a ‘map and an agreement’, at the start of the Architectus reconciliation action journey, that expresses the elements of cultural understanding required for Architectus to effectively contribute to reconciliation with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. The understanding between Aboriginal and Non-Aboriginal world views are represented by the two halves of the symbol for Aboriginal community and the protractor coming together and completing the circle in the centre of the painting is surrounded by people of all cultural background. This symbol of balance, understanding and mutual respect is set in the centre of the perspective, acknowledging that achieving this balance is still off in the future. But may-be not too far away. 1 A message from Reconciliation Australia Reconciliation Australia welcomes Since 2006, RAPs have provided a framework It is critical to not only uphold all five dimensions for organisations to leverage their structures of reconciliation, but also increase awareness Architectus to the Reconciliation and diverse spheres of influence to support the of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures, Action Plan (RAP) program with the national reconciliation movement.

  • How the Canterbury Earthquake Sequence Led to a Departure from Concrete Technologies
    A CHANGE OF SCENE: HOW THE CANTERBURY EARTHQUAKE SEQUENCE LED TO A DEPARTURE FROM CONCRETE TECHNOLOGIES Morten Gjerde 1 School of Architecture, Victoria University of Wellington, P.O. Box 600, Wellington, 6140, New Zealand Over time, nature can expose even the slightest weakness. This became very clear following a sequence of unexpected earthquakes that struck in Christchurch, New Zealand earlier this decade. At the time the quakes struck, research and development with concrete building technology Canterbury had gained an international reputation and contributed significantly to the region's development. Structural and architectural innovation helped make concrete the material of choice for new commercial buildings. The paper outlines some of the key architectural and structural innovations evident in the buildings of the city. The earthquake sequence exposed several shortcomings in the design, construction and maintenance of buildings, including to several buildings that represent key moments along the innovation pathway. Now that the rebuild is well under way it is becoming clear with every building that is completed that the city’s visual character will be significantly different. The emerging character appears to be developing around the global materials of steel and glass, with concrete no longer featuring in the ways it had. The paper discusses the background to this departure and how it signals the end of a productive period of innovation with this local material. Keywords: Christchurch earthquakes, performance, concrete, disaster, innovation INTRODUCTION Throughout its brief history of post-colonial settlement, and prior to the widespread losses arising from the 2010-12 seismic sequence, Christchurch had gained a well-deserved reputation for the quality of its built environment.

  • 402 Montreal Street, Christchurch
    DISTRICT PLAN –LISTED HERITAGE PLACE HERITAGE ASSESSMENT – STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE HERITAGE ITEM NUMBER 391 DWELLING AND SETTING– 402 MONTREAL STREET, CHRISTCHURCH PHOTOGRAPH: M. VAIR-PIOVA, 2014 HISTORICAL AND SOCIAL SIGNIFICANCE Historical and social values that demonstrate or are associated with: a particular person, group, organisation, institution, event, phase or activity; the continuity and/or change of a phase or activity; social, historical, traditional, economic, political or other patterns. The dwelling at 402 Montreal Street has historical and social significance for its connection to Reverend John Aldred and Joseph Colborne Veel. The dwelling was built in 1878 when builder Henry Haggerty leased the property from the Rev. John Aldred and raised a mortgage to build on the site. Rev. Aldred, after whom Beveridge Street was once named, was an ordained Wesleyan minister, had arrived in New Zealand in 1840. He settled in Christchurch in 1854 as one of the first Wesleyan clergyman in the town and was granted land in Durham Street North by the Superintendent in 1856. Aldred was sent to Dunedin in 1864 but he later returned to live in St Albans. Haggerty encountered financial difficulties and sold the property to Dan Griffiths in 1882. Griffiths owned it for 10 years before Joseph Colborne Veel purchased part of the property in a mortgagee sale. Oxford-educated, Veel arrived in New Zealand in 1857, where he joined Page 1 the staff of The Press and subsequently became editor, a position he held until 1878. Veel also served on the Canterbury College Board of Governors and was secretary to the North Canterbury Education Board.

A CITY FOR ALL SEASONS A CASE STUDY OF URBAN PLACE PROMOTION A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Parks, Recreation and Tourism Management at Lincoln University by Andrea Schollmann Lincoln University 1997 -. -~,. - ': '''----- ABSTRACT Abstract of a thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree ofM.P.R & T.M. A CITY FOR ALL SEASONS A CASE STUDY OF URBAN PLACE PROMOTION by Andrea Schollmann Promoting cities as tourism de~tinations is seen as a way to enable growth. This promotion involves the projection of selective imagery to specific target groups and often includes the physical reshaping of places to fit a promotable image. Attempts to understand these processes have often focused on one of two approaches: a global perspective stressing the consumptive nature of the tourist gaze and the resultant commodification of place at the local level; and a local perspective emphasising difference and uniqueness. My thesis outlines an investigation into the promotion of the city of Christchurch, New Zealand.
