Tim Holmes (Treasurer) CHRISTCHURCH
Tim is an architect and heritage consultant with a broad experience of building types, both heritage and new. He recently left Warren and Mahoney where 8 years of practice saw him working as project architect and one of the heritage professionals working on the reinstatement of Christchurch Cathedral, as well as being involved in the Observatory hotel development at the Arts Centre of Christchurch and the seismic strengthening and refurbishment of Turnbull House for Heritage New Zealand Pouhere Taonga.
Tim is currently working on a range of projects in various roles, from straight conservation architecture, through heritage consultancy and review, to expert witness work. His passion is in the human connection to the land and how we occupy it. Heritage and archaeology are one of many ways that hold stories of that connection and rewards avid curiosity and applied imagination.
Tim arrived in New Zealand 10 years ago from Guernsey in the Channel Islands and has been based in Ĺtautahi since. He joined ICOMOS Aotearoa New Zealand in 2021 as an affiliate, became a full member in 2022 and joined the Board in October 2023, taking over from Gareth Wright as Treasurer.
