Waipa Wood Processing Workshop
By DCA Architects of Transformation
The commission was won by an open design competition. The project was required to use timber exclusively.
Waiariki Institute of Technology Waipa Campus is the primary industry site for sawmilling, forestry and horticulture. It’s a very rough and tough environment. We used existing building forms and the stacked timber packs to give local context to the design.
