Traditional building methods have been scaled-up to make a large community space while maintaining the sense of enclosure and detail. Great richness is derived from the shaped and honed timbers with traditional bound joints (tafa). The large and elegantly curved and lathed glulam rafters suggest traditional fale construction while demonstrating the use of advanced timber machining technology.
