Hurunui O Rangi Marae

The project ‘Hurunui O Rangi Marae’ champions the notion that landscape architecture can be
the catalyst for the betterment of communities and place. A small rural marae is reworked to incorporate important cultural conventions and activities. This in turn helps to strengthen the Maori community and provides a presence for the local school in Carterton. Recreation and cultivation play an important role in guiding the design moves. Food production and commerce are important outcomes of the design. Beautiful perspective images illustrate the design and give a good sense of the rural community scale.
