An adaptive reuse of Wellington's Dominion Museum 
- Inspired by James Hectors Entomology collection which was once housed in the Dominion Museum 

Entomology is a space that stems creativity. A place to learn, explore and react.
The adaptable design allows for various different communitie's to come
together, interact and spread their wings.
The hanging mesh light installation emphasises the historical entomology layers and
creates a cave like atmosphere.
