The University of Auckland recognises Jeremy Salmond with Distinguished Alumni Award 2020.
The award was announced in March 2020, just before New Zealand moved into lockdown for the Covid-19 Pandemic. Jeremy, acknowledged as a contemporary voice of heritage and practicing design architect was awarded for his contribution to conservation and architecture in New Zealand. He received the award along with three other outstanding graduates in the fields of law, business and literature.
In 2018, Jeremy Salmond was awarded the New Zealand Institute of Architects (NZIA) Gold Medal, and in 2007 the Queen’s Service Order (QSO) for his contribution to the preservation of New Zealand’s heritage of significant buildings.
I accept the award as an acknowledgement of the importance of this work to our cultural heritage and to the quality of community life in this country.
