Original character has been carefully preserved, with salvaged timber flooring, hand-formed Oamaru stone, shoji-inspired screens, and a restrained material palette introducing warmth without overwhelming the building’s industrial history. Every intervention was considered, allowing old and new to coexist naturally.
Extensive remediation, complex consenting, and the integration of modern services required a thoughtful construction approach, ensuring the building was prepared for its next chapter while retaining its authenticity.
