Catalyst Group

We designed a studio space for a squad of dinos!

Dinosaur Polo Club is an independent video game developer based in Wellington. They’re a handful of lovely humans creating games with relatable simplicity. The past couple of years have seen their studio grow as they work on exciting new games and needed a new space to house their expanding squad of talented dinos.

Catalyst were engaged as design and build consultants for their Beaumont St, Auckland location. This would be the second major office project Catalyst would deliver for Crombie Lockwood (now Gallagher Insurance), the first being in Wellington, and smaller works in Whangarei and West Auckland.

You only have to glance at the directory board in the lobby at 22 The Terrace to realise that you are in a very special green building. Simply put, the transformation of an existing 1980s commercial office block into an award winning sustainable 5 Greenstar showpiece has been truly efficient.

Catalyst delivered a successful design build solution for Wellington AOG accommodation, a 5 Star Green Star project design.  Using natural materials along with earthy hues, the project perfectly reflects the clients want to create a special and emotionally resonant workspace in the heart of Wellingtons city centre.

Catalyst was assigned with the mission to design the best office space in Auckland, one that exudes a warm and inviting atmosphere. We were instrumental in making crucial decisions such as selecting the building to move to and creating high-level concept designs for all three options. Ultimately, the Australis Nathan building in the highly sought-after Britomart area emerged as the clear winner.

Welcome to the prestigious Victoria Gardens complex on Victoria Avenue in Remuera, where Catalyst's client embarked on a transformative journey to bring their apartment vision to life.
