Hundertwasser Art Centre with Wairau Māori Art Gallery: A Testament to Vision, Community, and Sustainability
The Hundertwasser Art Centre with Wairau Māori Art Gallery in Whangārei is a stunning tribute to the Austrian artist and visionary Friedensreich Hundertwasser. Designed by German architect Heinz M. Springmann and Grant Harris of HB Architecture in New Zealand, the centre embodies Hundertwasser’s unique philosophy of blending art, architecture, and nature.
The project highlights sustainability and community-driven collaboration at its core. Constructed using 40,000 recycled bricks, 1,600 cubic metres of repurposed native timber, 5,000 recycled pavers, and over 3,000 square metres of locally crafted tiles, the building reflects Hundertwasser’s eco-conscious vision.
