Land Information New Zealand
Commercial Interior Category Finalist
Project Description:
Creative Spaces' brief was to upgrade the existing office
interior of Land Information New Zealand (LINZ), creating a space
that was light, fresh, welcoming and comfortable, while at the same
time functional and reflective of the organisation and their area
of operation.
LINZ exists to maintain and regulate Crown and private property
rights and to make available the geographic information about New
Zealand. A key part of Creative Spaces brief was to showcase these
elements through the design.
Creative Spaces design solution draws on a colour palette of
land and sea, which they have used extensively throughout the
office space to subtly reinforce LINZ's connection to the geography
of New Zealand. References to maps and mapping - also key to what
LINZ does - can be seen in various details throughout the space.
Because LINZ stores and holds numerous physical geographical
records and maps onsite, filing was a key area of concern for the
client. While they wanted to maintain ease of access to files, they
also wanted to ensure that the office environment was visually
dynamic.
Boldly coloured blades at the end of a series of storage rows
were used to mark and partially conceal the file storage area of
the office, providing both a practical and aesthetically pleasing
design solution.
