Designing hospitality isn’t just about individual spaces it’s about how they work together. This renovation at the Grand Millennium Auckland carefully curates a shared open environment that accommodates a restaurant, mezzanine cocktail bar and lobby bar each with its own distinct identity yet seamlessly connected.

Thoughtful zoning, sightlines and circulation create a natural flow between spaces supporting both guest experience and operational efficiency as the venues transition from day to evening. Beyond hotel convenience the design establishes a true destination inviting locals and visitors alike.

Reflecting on last Friday celebrating design excellence

Very proud to share our Silver win at the 2025 for Auckland City Office (ACO)!

Honouring the building’s Art Deco heritage, ACO transformed a conventional office into a workspace that balances elegance with comfort. From the bold, textured reception that invites meetings and socialising, to private rooms designed for quiet focus, and a boardroom and kitchen brought to life through custom joinery and thoughtful finishes, the project creates a workspace where function, comfort, and character come together.

We’re stoked to see this one recognised, and a huge thanks to our client and everyone involved in bringing this project to life.
