I have been giving a Travel Scholarships for this summer I would like to visit New Zealand. I would like to look into bookbinding. I know Peter Goodwin is based in Auckland, New Zealand i think he would be an intresting man to speak with and learn from. Anyone know of any good museums there worth visiting from a design point of view.
also could people drop some links for good design studios in New Zealand.
Thank you.

http://www.tepapa.govt.nz/Tepapa… is the national museum the building is impressive, exhibits maybe. Coming from New Zealand I'd grown up with most of the stuff there. It's in Wellington which has a fair bit going on as well due to the fact that one of the main design arts universities is there.

Auckland is brilliant as is Wellington - lots to see and do. Lived there for 3 months and my girlfriend is from Auckland.

All New Zealanders are descended from criminals and diseased monkeys! Oh no, wait, that's Australians!

I'm born and bred kiwi, when will you be there? Would buy you an overpriced night out drinking of course. It's just what we do.
