Studio Pacific Architecture Projects Named Finalists in the 2026 Timber Design Awards

Three Studio Pacific Architecture projects have been named as finalists in four categories at the 2026 Timber Design Awards. Spanning residential, commercial, manufacturing, and engineering work, the recognition reflects the range of ways timber is shaping our practice, from small‑scale homes to complex infrastructure.

The Timber Design Awards celebrate the considered use of timber in New Zealand architecture and construction, recognising projects that balance design quality, technical innovation, and material responsibility. 

We’re grateful to our clients, consultants, builders, fabricators, and project teams whose collaboration made these projects possible. Congratulations to all finalists recognised in this year’s awards.
