2023 New Zealand Architecture Awards Winner
Chapman Tripp Wellington Fitout
This project is testament to the effectiveness of strong communication and organisation between client, architect and contractors during the difficult COVID 19 lockdown period. A clear metaphor of light passing from the darker hills to lighter seascapes has resulted in a dark to light material palette within the two-storey floor plates. A central void and stair linking business clients and guests on the upper level and in the workspaces below, activates the space and allows a double-height library wall to stand proud and add gravitas to the work carried out here. This beautifully detailed fitout has resulted in a higher percentage of the team wanting to swap from WFH to being in the office — surely a marker of success.
