Modern painted
The Sir Howard Morrison Centre (SHMC) in Rotorua stands as a testament to the art of balancing historical preservation with modern functionality. Originally constructed in 1938 as the Rotorua Municipal Building, the structure’s Spanish Mission-style architecture has been a defining feature of the city's Civic Centre for decades. However, this iconic building has undergone several transformations, the most recent of which has seamlessly integrated the legacy of Sir Howard Morrison with contemporary architectural practices, culminating in a revitalised performing arts venue that reflects Rotorua's rich cultural tapestry.
