Transformation of an existing building that was previously the Papatoetoe Fire Station into a new Youthline and community facility. This required extensive consultation with community and user groups and liaison with the Youthline Steering Committee. Following this consultation Logan Architects Ltd produced an extensive Design Scope Working Document and then a Technical Design Scope Report to assist the youth focused collaborative design process. The design has retained historic aspects of the fire station while transforming spaces into a modern community facility. The community space includes a medical facility, helpline centre, hospitality teaching facility & café, sporting and recreational areas and multipurpose spaces to cater for various community groups.
Logan Architects Limited is an NZIA registered practice. We are committed to producing outstanding architectural solutions that exceed expectations. Our client’s requirements & preferences are pivotal in our design process where we synthesise these with the site, environmental, functional, sustainable, sculptural and budgetary elements. Established in 1995 we have a broad depth of experience with the completion of a wide variety of quality residential, commercial, healthcare and community projects including new buildings and renovations throughout New Zealand. We are a boutique practice that allows all projects to be managed personally by our principal Registered Architect Logan Reilly.
We listen carefully to your requirements, ask the right questions and explore design options in close collaboration with you so that you understand the rationale for design choices. We will assist you through the decision-making process to maximise your project's potential. Visual sketches are generated during initial design meetings to ensure we are correctly interpreting the brief and to generate feedback on preferences/direction. Project costs are evaluated at an early stage to inform and meet expectations. Our intimate knowledge of the art and science of architecture and our constantly evolving design and technical solutions generate outcomes that delight our clients and building users.
Our Office is located on the beautiful west coast of Auckland at Muriwai Beach. Our location in Auckland does not limit where we work. We have successfully completed many projects for our clients throughout New Zealand.
