NZIA Festival of Architecture 2019

The Festival of Architecture is an annual series of engaging, enjoyable and almost entirely free events that aim to celebrate and investigate the role of architecture in improving the quality of life in Aotearoa New Zealand’s towns and cities.

Upcoming Events

NZIA-Open-Studio-2019

Open Studio: Makers of Architecture

Friday 20 September 2019
3:00 – 6:00pm
Location: 16 Jessie Street, Level 1, Te Aro, Wellington

Go behind the scenes of architecture studios in Wellington to find out what architects do and how they do it. Each practice will offer their own programme, but you are likely to have the opportunity to view and discuss both completed projects and work in progress, as well as the opportunity to meet the creative minds behind the projects.

Are you thinking of studying architecture, looking to commission an architect, or are you just interested to take a look at what goes on behind the scenes within an architecture studio? Come along, you are most welcome.

This free event is open to all.

See pre-fabrication in action. Take a tour through the Makers Fabrication factory, the manufacturing component of Makers of Architecture.

Makers of Architecture evolved from a desire to bring the architectural and construction environments closer together, allowing for collaboration and innovation through engaging with technological design efficiencies.

Makers Fabrication has been set up to service the architecture, design and building industry, specialising in digital fabrication and assembly. The workshop tour will show off processes involved in the prefabrication process and some of the CNC machinery that makes it happen.

Making Ways: Alternative Architectural Practice in Aotearoa

Motivated by the urgency of the challenges we all now face – environmental, social and economic – young architects in Aotearoa are inventing new forms of practice. These moves respond to a range of overlapping factors that draw practices in different directions and see them developing new and alternative ways of making architecture.

Making Ways takes the format of a staged, live ‘rolling event’, bringing together four practices that have emerged in Aotearoa in response to this context. Shaping their ways of making architecture by charting a new course through these concerns, each practice has developed a week-long project that brings to life aspects of their practice. Sequentially inhabiting the gallery, Objectspace is recast as a hybrid studio, laboratory and wānanga as Making Ways includes lectures, slide shows, interviews, workshops and other evolving live events. Come and join a conversation about ways of making architecture now and into the future.
