Projects

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.

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.

Reviving a flood-damaged, long-abandoned medical centre, this project transformed a deteriorating building into a fully functional, modern healthcare facility, delivered in half the cost of a new build. By prioritising refurbishment over demolition, we preserved its deep community and cultural significance while creating a practical, future-ready space.

JBWere, a leading financial management firm with offices in Auckland, Wellington, and Christchurch, engaged Catalyst to reimagine their Wellington workspace. As a client-focused organisation, JBWere sought a refurbishment that would enhance collaboration while improving acoustic privacy. Their existing office no longer aligned with their evolving needs, prompting a thoughtful redesign to create a more functional and engaging environment.

Catalyst partnered with Volpara Health to deliver a thoughtful office fitout at their Victoria Street premises in Wellington. The project focused on creating a refreshed, high-performing workspace while prioritising sustainability, cost efficiency, and alignment with Volpara’s brand.

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.

ANZ’s Featherston Street lobby was revitalised through thoughtful, high‑impact updates that bring warmth, comfort, and a contemporary feel to the arrival experience. The result is a more inviting, functional space that better supports staff, visitors, and client interaction.

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.

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.

Sudima engaged Catalyst to assess the acoustics of their hotel's bedrooms. Impressed with their work, Sudima expanded the project to include a reception and admin block, a 90-bed wing, and refurbishment of two older wings to modern standards.
