Northland Regional Council fitout

36 Water Street, Whangarei

The new interior fit-out of an existing building to meet the needs of a diverse range of clients required a detailed space analysis to ensure the necessary requirements were met.

Issues we needed to cover were the Northland Regional Council’s organisational structure, team numbers, work group relationships and workspace standards in order to design a functioning workspace.

The result being a new office environment to satisfy specific needs, such as laboratories, public areas and storage facilities while enhancing key operational work flows and inter-work relationships.

Bold colours were explored as feature walls to office, meeting room and reception walls with a neutral colour binding individual spaces and the project together as a whole.
