About This Project

Located in the earthquake prone Christchurch, in New Zealand, the Awly Building is a five-storey mixed-use property designed by architects Warren + Mahoney.

The Awly Building is equipped with base isolators which reduce swaying and shaking during an earthquake, helping limit damage to the building. This is coupled with diagonal seismic bracing, visible through the high-performance façade, for lateral stability.

The central courtyard features green spaces, which works in concert with an internal design to maximize outlook and natural light.
