Landmarks

Christchurch Art Gallery Te Puna o Waiwhetū

Christchurch Art Gallery Te Puna o Waiwhetū in Christchurch, New Zealand, by The Buchan Group, rebuilt as an approximate visual BIM model from 2 published architectural references. The building measures 78 × 72 m on plan and 16 m tall, across 2 named levels: Ground and sculpture foyer, Upper galleries.

Modelled detail includes scaled trace of the undulating west glass foyer, overlapping glass curtain segments with steel mullions and entry breaks and flowing folded metal roof over double-height foyer.

The template ships with 5 saved scenes — a street-level approach, 3 viewpoints from the building's own observation set, and an aerial three-quarter — and carries the real site at 312 Montreal Street, Christchurch Central City, Christchurch 8013, New Zealand, so map context and sun angles line up when you open it. It is an approximate visual reconstruction for design and presentation use, not a measured survey, certified BIM, engineering model or construction document.
