Projects

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.

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.

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 partnered with Sedgwick New Zealand to create a plan for accommodating their expanding team and establishing a more socially and value-driven work environment. This collaboration resulted in a relocation to new premises on Carlton Gore Road in Newmarket.

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.

At Catalyst, we don’t just build structures; we create environments that foster community, collaboration, and innovation. We’re proud of what we accomplished with this local government agency and look forward to more projects that bring together culture, sustainability, and cutting-edge design.

After successfully delivering their Wellington office, Catalyst were entrusted by multinational organisation, Servcorp, to fit out their new Auckland site on Level 8 of 139 Quay Street; a landmark in the harbour skyline.

Catalyst partnered with this client to create a sophisticated meeting hub designed to host regional executives. Combining industrial elements with brass accents and luxury finishes, the space strikes a balance between boldness and warmth. A versatile kitchen area anchors the design, ready to accommodate business functions with style.  A thoughtfully integrated AV systems ensures a comfortable, collaborative environment.

Austen & Blake, a boutique jeweler celebrated for its personalised approach to crafting bespoke pieces, has been enchanting customers across the UK, Ireland, and Australia. Expanding into New Zealand, they entrusted Catalyst as their Design and Build partner to streamline design, project management, and construction into a seamless process, perfectly aligning with their vision.

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.
