Architecture of New Duveland

This is an article related to the Commonwealth of New Duveland

New Duvelander architecture has generally been consistent with architectural trends in the wider Western world, with some special adaptations to compensate for distinctive New Duveland climatic and cultural factors. Māori design's have been greatly intergrated in modern designs during recent years, with the whare whakairo often seen as the personification of ancestors. In the 2000s contemporary Māori architects continued to draw on Māori concepts and values in their work. During New Duveland's early Western history, it was a collection of British, French colonies in which architectural styles were strongly influenced by British and French designs. However, the unique climate of New Duveland necessitated adaptations, and 20th-century trends reflected the increasing influence of American urban designs and a diversification of the cultural tastes and requirements of an increasingly multicultural New Duvelander society.

Notable New Duvelander architectural adaptations include the Lapérousean and Dominion styles of residential architecture. Iconic New Duveland designs include the Union Dome, Espérance Catherdral, the Parliament House of New Duveland, the Tasbury Royal Exhibition Building and over 2000 remnant penal colony buildings over 9 main sites selected for AINESCO protection in 2010.
