New Zealander Maurice Tebbs (1932 – 2018) was a creative architect whose legacy can be found in the bricks and mortar of downtown Wellington and around the world.
His architectural designs began in the form of standard 1960s houses and progressed to mammoth commercial projects.
His stamp was planted firmly on the capital's most public of spaces - Civic Square - in a joint project with two other architectural giants - Ian Athfield and Gordon Moller.

His work spanned decades. Even after retiring, he continued designing houses and residential development projects, maintaining an active interest in the profession he loved. And always, despite the new computerised way of working, retained his old school techniques using a drafting table and T-square.
