Extensive re-fit of an existing factory comprising 5000 m2 space to cater for Fisher & Paykel’s growing product design and engineering team, accommodating 400+ employees. The design provided capacity for over 400 employees in open-plan workstation pods broken up with multiple meeting pods and informal gathering spaces. The central focus is a large multi-purpose social kitchen which is used for informal meetings, product demonstrations, team gatherings as well as serving as a great venue for coffee and meal breaks. The introduction of additional natural light was achieved by the introduction of large light walls and ingenious light funnels which are generally centred over informal gathering spaces. This multi-award-winning design including many interesting architectural features and high-quality fittings and furniture was delivered to a very happy client with a surprisingly economic budget.

“The Christchurch Heritage Trust engaged Cuesko to oversee the costings for the Trust’s Trinity/Shands project. This is a combination of two Category 1 buildings listed by Heritage New Zealand, a reconstruction of a tower, and the addition of a new block for meeting rooms, toilet and kitchen facilities. Since Cuesko developed the concept estimate for the project the scope has developed and evolved into four major elements of work. This is an unusual and complex project as each of these elements comes with its own set of unique design features and heritage responsibilities which incorporate extremely innovative construction and repair strategies. Cuesko have the challenging task of managing the budget for each element separately and as the project evolves through the design stage, Cuesko have been imperative in providing the cost advice to support decision making. Due to new construction systems being continually researched and investigated, Eoin has tailored the cost planning document to be easily updated as new information becomes available. This allows the forecasted budget expenditure to be tracked and managed all while incorporating actual costs incurred from early works running on site concurrent with the design period. Eoin has shown great enthusiasm in this significant Christchurch heritage project and his efforts to keep the reports current with all changes has had a very positive impact on the PM’s ability to consult with other members of the design team.”
