Projects

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.

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.

Ever imagined that a brewery could be your next office space? Global leader in smart meter technology, EDMI, needed a fresh workspace that matched their high-tech needs. The building at 100 Taranaki Street/1 Ghuznee Street, once a bar, restaurant, and brewery, presented a unique challenge for transforming it into a modern office. Catalyst preserved the building's distinctive character while creating a functional and inspiring office environment that aligned with EDMI's brand.

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.

This project, a collaboration between Catalyst and two other firms was awarded 'Best Government Project' by the 'Project Management Institute' in 2019. It was also a finalist for the NZIOB 'Collaboration Award' in the same year.

Kada's new showroom is a collaborative effort between the client and Catalyst. From design to project management, our team enjoyed working with Kada and Workscape to ensure a seamless transition to the new space.
