Aotea Centre, Auckland’s performing arts and events hub, has recently undergone a phased refurbishment. The interior and exterior transformation is the first major refurbishment for the Aotea Centre in 28 years.
The interior refurbishment will house specialised rehearsal and performance spaces for music, drama and dance, state-of-the-art digital recording facilities, and office and retail areas. Attracting world-class performances, events and exhibitions to Auckland, as well as being an inspiring hub for performers and patrons.
MacDonald Industries worked with S&T Architects to specify bathroom supplies for the refurbished bathroom.
“The fittings were selected based on visual and functional requirements to provide a unique user experience. We wanted to complement the crisp, minimal aesthetic of the refurbishment, as well as to meet the hygiene and durability needs of a civic building, all whilst being cost-effective.” - S&T Architects

Bathrooms for public buildings have a unique set of requirements.
Unlike residential environments these bathrooms can be subject to intermittent, intensive use by a range of diverse users over short and long periods of time. Solutions need to provide robust, efficient and cost effective whole-of-life outcomes. Hydraulic design with the appropriate behind and front-of-wall fittings are vital for the long term viability of a commercial bathroom.
With over 55 years experience in the design, specification, supply and installation of bathrooms for hospitals, schools, prisons, shopping malls, swimming pools, marae's, public buildings, sports stadiums, airports and public toilets Macdonald Industries has seen it all.
