The brief for this project was to retrofit an existing space retail space into a bookstore in the heart of Wellington City. All the furniture was designed in 18mm Radiata plywood in 1200mm modules in an effort to reduced material waste. Each shelf is on a slight angle, enough to shift the weight of the books inwards, but not enough to be visible to the eye.

About the
Professional

Atelierworkshop was founded in 2000 on a plurality of thoughts and languages as a working process. The collaborative has different and diverse architectural experience in various parts of the world that combine professional work and research.

Their approach is orientated towards reconnecting people with a physical reality, a territory, its history and a cultural context. Over 23 years in practice they have developed a portfolio from bespoke residential and commercial boutique architecture to light industrial development, regenerative tourism and eco farm development.

“Our architecture seeks to reveal the landscape and the environment through innovation and common sense. Our projects are developed from a concern for forming one body with the site. Without compromising on design, we put priority on finding sustainable solutions".
