Student Success at Resene Total Colour Awards

Congratulations to Architecture Master’s student Omea Hall, who was a winner at the 15th Resene Total Colour Awards at a recent ceremony during Auckland Design Week.

Omea won the Resene Total Colour Rising Star Colour Maestro Award for her project, Summit Spas.

The Resene Total Colour Awards 2024/25 judging panel included Sylvia Sandford (colour expert), John Walsh (former editor of Architecture) and Laura Lynn Johnston (editor of BlackWhite magazine), and were impressed with Omea's work.

"The epitome of alpine sophistication, this project blends seamlessly with the strength of its surrounding mountaintops while maintaining a lovely lightness. There’s a perfect fit between the breathtaking design and the carefully chosen colour palette."

"The meticulous attention to specification of this ambitious project reflects a level of care associated with professionals. It’s a stunningly beautiful space, perfect for relaxation."

Omea's third year Bachelor of Architectural Studies project was supervised by Associate Professor Tobias Danielmeier, Head of Architecture, who says he's very pleased about her success in the awards.
