This project involved the construction of a two-level building for mixed-use commercial activities in the heart of the new Three Parks commercial area in Wanaka. Mountain Warehouse is the primary tenant, showcasing open plan wide span commercial space. The building comprises a ground floor area of ?m2 and a first-floor area of ?m2 (including amenity spaces).

Building materials have been selected to reflect the alpine environment being a mixture of typical commercial and industrial options. These include cedar wall cladding, tight stack stone, rough edge brick and concrete panels.

Significant tonnage of reinforcing steel and concrete has been required in the foundation to hold up the steel frame above. Structural steel sizes in the walls and ceilings have also been required to be sized to accommodate large spans to assist the open-plan office environment.
