Paul Dibble, alongside architect John Hardwick-Smith, designed the New Zealand War Memorial in London's Hyde Park Corner. The memorial commemorates the enduring bond between New Zealand and the United Kingdom and honours the lives lost during the World Wars.

"Through the words and images, any New Zealander visiting the memorial will recognise home, and British people may learn something of the relationship between our two countries."
Paul Dibble
