Hotel Indigo Auckland – A Showcase of Bespoke Timber Flooring

At the heart of midtown Auckland, Hotel Indigo offers a boutique experience that seamlessly blends the heritage of its historic façade with the vibrancy of contemporary city life. Developed by 94 Feet Pty in collaboration with Icon Construction, the hotel occupies one of Auckland’s tallest buildings, placing guests among the city’s skyline and just steps away from some of its most celebrated cultural and culinary destinations.

To complement this fusion of past and present, the design team selected Natures Oak engineered timber in Black Forest, a rich and timeless flooring choice that anchors the hotel’s interiors with depth and warmth. More than an aesthetic decision, this specification demonstrates a commitment to durability, functionality, and sustainability.

Through Project Oak, Quick-Step’s bespoke timber flooring solution for large-scale developments, the hotel’s flooring was fully customized to meet the unique demands of a premium hospitality environment. The selection process included tailored grading and surface treatments, ensuring the timber reflected both luxury and longevity.

Key innovations elevate the performance of the flooring throughout high-traffic and moisture-prone areas:

• Watertight surface technology provides superior resistance to spills and moisture, ideal for the demands of hotel living.
• Surface & Edge Protect+ ensures easier maintenance by repelling dirt and grime from grains and joints.
• Uniclic installation system guarantees precision, stability, and versatility in both floating and glued-down applications.
• Sustainability credentials are assured through PEFC certification, confirming the wood is sourced from responsibly managed forests.

The tactile brushed surface and deep Black Forest tone create a grounded elegance that balances the building’s architectural history with its bold, modern interiors. The result is a flooring solution that not only withstands the rigours of a bustling hotel, but also enhances the storytelling embedded in every corner of Hotel Indigo.

By choosing Project Oak, 94 Feet Pty have set a benchmark in bespoke flooring solutions—where premium performance, environmental responsibility, and design flexibility converge to create a truly distinctive guest experience.
