Auckland Airport Lounge, TRENZ 2019
CLIENT Auckland Airport
THEME Airport of the Future
VENUE Rotorua Energy Events Centre, Rotorua
The Brief
To create a lounge using the inspiration and designs around the brand and a functional business space.
The Challenge
To create an inviting lounge in the sports arena’s main reception area.
The Outcome
We recreated the information desk found at the airport and had hosts welcoming the delegates into the lounge space as they would in an airport. Giant screens helped portray the message of change and growth and the furniture pods created quiet spaces for delegates to work and charge their devices. Imagery was placed on the walls in a timeline of building work completed as a running storyboard. The reception desk was cleverly disguised using wooden screens and dressing hiding any notes of community sports paraphernalia. Black furniture – reflecting the brand – was arranged cleverly and dressed accordingly, resulting in a very comfortable and inviting space that was well used throughout the three day event.
