Curves That Define Space 

One of the defining moves in this fit-out is the dome profile with curved track. Designed to wrap smoothly around the edges of meeting rooms and office walls, the profile introduces flow and softness into what could have been a rigid floor plan. The precision of the system allows for complex geometry without compromising buildability, ensuring the curves feel intentional and effortless.

Timber Warmth, Aluminium Performance

While the profiles appear to be solid timber, they are in fact Wood-Finish Aluminium in Australian Ash. This approach brings together the best of both worlds, the natural warmth of timber with the durability, consistency, and low maintenance of aluminium. The inclusion of acoustic backing means these walls don’t just look beautiful; they actively contribute to a quieter, more productive workplace.

A Biophilic Workplace

Biophilic design principles are woven throughout the SecuritEase office. The Wood-Finish linings complement an abundance of planting and greenery, creating a visual connection to nature within the workspace. This layering of natural elements brings a sense of calm and balance, supporting employee wellbeing and reinforcing the value of designing for people as much as for function.

Concealed Door Detail  

An innovative detail in this project is the concealed door integrated seamlessly into the curved wall system. This door leads discreetly into a private office, maintaining the sleek architectural lines while delivering practical functionality. It’s a clever design feature that reflects the balance between aesthetics and usability.

Rich Materiality, Cohesive Palette  

The broader palette across the workplace embraces richness and depth. Textures, colours, and finishes are layered to create variety without clutter. Against this backdrop, the warm tones of the Australian Ash profiles enrich the overall materiality, tying the space together and reinforcing a sense of cohesion.

Delivering Buildable Beauty 

This project captures what makes great workplace design in New Zealand possible: a commitment to detail, materials that balance performance and aesthetics, and a design approach that places people at the centre. The result is a workplace that feels contemporary, inviting, and distinctly connected to nature.
