The Lighthouse is a new public artwork by New Zealand artist Michael Parekowhai. As a gift to the city, Barfoot & Thompson funded the commission of the artwork. Its exterior is in the form of a 1:1 scale 1950s family home and the interior artwork features an installation of light. You can come and explore the work by looking in windows, doors and climbing the staircase!
