New Zealand Commercial Design Trends Series NZ Commercial Design Trends Vol. 35/01C | Page 4

A new commercial office building can sometimes be more than just a place to work – it can also be an integral component in future development of its surrounding area. That’s the projected outcome for No.1 Sylvia Park in Auckland and VicRoads in Melbourne, both of which feature in this issue of Commercial Design Trends. We also showcase two campus facilities for architectural students, in which the buildings themselves plays as much a part in the education process as lectures and studio projects do. Plus we’ve tapped into expert advice and opinion for our two market sector reports – one considering the key themes driving the nature of both entertainment venues and fan experiences in the stadium of the future, and the other exploring what makes a workplace a well place.
