This pilot project for BNZ aimed to bring together customers and staff in mutual dialogue. The first-floor space of the building, on the outskirts of Queenstown, takes advantage of expansive surrounding views to the mountains and lake beyond. The fit-out provides a variety of spaces for solo work, meetings and relaxation, while a café facilitates social interaction. The architects’ understanding of private and public spaces, combined with clever use of perimeter sliding screens and a varied colour palette make this fit-out a popular one with the community.
