Rewi: Āta haere, kia tere - Tyrone Ohia, FDINZ, Extended Whānau; Lucy Thompson; Jeremy Hansen & Jade Kake.
A tribute to the late architect Rewi Thompson (Ngāti Porou, Ngāti Raukawa), a visionary thinker who believed that great architecture is crafted through careful consideration of people and place.
Rewi, the book brings together a breathtaking range of his projects, from conceptual dreamscapes to one-of-a-kind homes. Rewi is one of our foremost contemporary Māori architects, but he is often overlooked.

Ōtākou Whakaihu Waka - Jef Wong, FDINZ, & Mike Pepper, DINZ, Designworks; Anzac Tasker, FDINZ, The Guardians.
Tuakiritaka. Restoring pride in identity, and pride in Ōtākou as a place of many firsts.
Alongside mana whenua and The University of Otago, Designworks set out to co-design an identity and brand that would speak to the present, be sensitive to and honour the true past, and provide clear momentum to navigate a path into the future.
DDMMYY & Klim Type Foundry

American Grotesk - Kelvin Soh, FDINZ, DDMMYY; Kris Sowersby, FDINZ, Klim Type Foundry.
A campaign for the launch of American Grotesk®, a reprisal of Franklin Gothic, which has staked its place as a key part of American graphic vernacular history, notably in persuasive communication.
Like Bollywood in relation to Hollywood, this is an America seen from a non-American perspective, an outsider's cocktail of cultural deconstruction and satire — commentary and comedy — inspired by Colors magazine, Adbusters and S.N.L.
The Tuesday Club
