KIds library mural up for words

Nicholas Boyack Reporter from Community News

A creative and collaborative project – between Clyde Quay School, Kelburn Normal School, and Wellington City Council’s Creative and Brand Team – has been named a finalist in the 2020 Designers Institute of New Zealand Best Design Awards.
Nominated in the Environmental Graphics category, Designer Katie Bevin says the project adopted its ‘nature’ theme following the naming of the library, located in Wellington’s CBD on Brandon Street.
Te Awe means white feathers – the name was gifted to the library by the local iwi – so they came up with the concept of New Zealand birds and feathers. The council worked with the kids to come up with a series of marks and artworks around those words.
Their drawings were then turned into the colourful designs that make up the wall murals in Te Awe Library.
