At this webinar, we will be joined by Bernadette Muir from Te Pūkenga and other industry colleagues to share their inspirational design projects.
We will hear from:

Chin grew up in Otago and Southland, and had family holidays in Arrowtown and Central Otago, which she says influenced her decision to study architecture. She runs her own practice, Anna-Marie Chin Architects, in Arrowtown.
In 2016, a home designed by Chin won Best Small Home. In 2022, the same home won the Home of the Year Award.
In the 2019, Te Kāhui Whaihanga New Zealand Institute of Architects Southern Awards, Chin's firm won two awards: in the Housing – Alterations and Additions category and the Commercial Architecture category. In the same awards in 2021, her firm won an award in the Housing category. In the 2023 awards, Chin's firm won twice: in the Housing category and the Housing – Alterations & Additions category.
In 2021, Chin was the featured architect in an episode of series one of the six-part television documentary series Designing Dreams presented by Matthew Ridge on Prime Television.
