A tribute to the late architect Rewi Thompson has swept the prizes at this year’s Publishers Association Book Design Awards.
Rewi: Āta haere, kia tere by Jade Kake and Jeremy Hansen, published by Massey University Press, won the supreme award, the best cover award and the people’s choice award, and it shared the best-illustrated book tohu with Pacific Arts Aotearoa, edited by Lana Lopesi.
The cover for Rewi was designed by Tyrone Ohia and Eva Charlton from the design agency Extended Whānau, and the interior by Tyrone Ohia, Eva Charlton, Max Quinn-Tapara (Extended Whānau) and Katrina Duncan.
The designers are credited with crafting a work of bold elegance, where every detail — from the colour palette to the thoughtful typography — celebrates Thompson’s legacy.
