Massey House – restored
- Wellington Scoop
- For mid-century architectural buffs, the refurbished and strengthened Massey House on Lambton Quay is really exciting. Opened in 1957, it was a building that projected New Zealand’s export-based prosperity in a modern world. Minister of Agriculture (later Prime Minister) Keith Holyoake was pictured looking out a top floor window from the Meat and Dairy Boards’ headquarters.

Amelia Bentley on Keeping Her Art Sacred
- Salient
- Amelia Bentley is an artist who captures beauty with both brush and intellect, balancing her life between her passion for art and a more academic career path. Currently in her final year of a Bachelor of Science at Te Herenga Waka, Amelia is majoring in Data Science and Psychology, disciplines that may seem worlds apart from her deep connection to painting. Growing up in Wellington, the proximity of Victoria University allowed her to pursue her dual passions while remaining close to home. But this balance between art and academia has been anything but simple.
