Biography
Andrew Patterson is one of New Zealand’s most internationally recognised architects. His architecture firm is the only New Zealand architectural practice to be published in Phaidon’s 10×10 book of the World’s Emerging Architects.
Andrew graduated from Auckland School of Architecture in 1987 with its senior prize. At age 28 he received his first National Award for Architecture, and represented New Zealand in The New Breed Architectural Exhibition in Sydney that year.
The architecture practice won the inaugural ‘New Zealand Young Architect of the Year Award’ in 1990 and since then, his Auckland based firm has gone on to become one of the most respected architectural practices in New Zealand, with an acclaimed 20 year portfolio of buildings ranging from intimate residential projects to large scale urban housing and public, commercial and tourism developments.
In 2008 Patterson Associates was the most awarded in the New Zealand Institute of Architects program, gaining four honours including the NZ Supreme Award for Architecture 2008, for the Michael Hill Clubhouse in Wakatipu.
