The distinctive new 170m2 office space is in the heart of Auckland CBD; Tailor Inc. used a neutral colour palette to accommodate the branding colours of potential lessees. The staff kitchen area has become the main feature of the office boasting a striking black and white stone top. Operationally speaking the space houses 1 large boardroom, 1 meeting room and an attractive main hub as well as shower facilities.

We spent time with our client to gain a good understanding of the intended purpose for the space permitting us to deliver a project that both us and our client are proud to put our name behind.

Benefits to the Client:

  • A luxurious and high-quality basebuild offering for potential office tenants.
  • Close relationship with the Client to determine scope and cost savings.
  • Close engagement with the Contractor to resolve issues efficiently.

Testimonial:

"I appointed Tailor INC to design, tender and manage a central Auckland office refurbishment and fit out. Tailor Inc. appointed a layered team to the project and delivered in all respects.

They were transparent and were excellent communicators and were willing to listen to my preferences.
I have no reservation in recommending their competent and conscientious team to any project. "

About the
Professional

Tailor Inc is New Zealand's respected market leader in Property Strategy, Commercial Design and Project Management.

Creative intelligence, anchored by insight, driven by expertise.

Property Strategy: The heart and the start

Strategy is the heart and driver of each of our projects. Correct and comprehensive planning is the key to unlock varied property opportunities. Every project is unique. Only by asking ‘What?’ and ‘Why?’ can we then determine the ‘How?’

We begin by gaining a clear understanding of your business and goals. We gather information, and above all, listen before we strategise and brainstorm collaboratively. It means our strategic thinking is founded on real problems or opportunities, so the resulting projects will deliver true value to your business.

Commercial Design: Beauty that means business

Is it beautiful if it isn’t functional? We don’t think so. That’s why your project won’t just meet your brand aspirations now and in the future, it will deliver on your functional needs. You’ll have the benefit of our team’s diverse and innovative perspectives from their varied design backgrounds, an agile design process to explore multiple avenues and our collaborative approach. Good design is a journey that begins with listening and understanding, so we arrive at a solution that perfectly suits your business. We have experience working on the workplace, retail, food and beverage, hotel and multi-storey residential projects.

Project Management: The delivery’s in the detail

Your unique understanding of how your project will drive value for your business – that’s where we start. Then we look past the obvious to extract that intrinsic value. Part of that is allowing a project to evolve during its life cycle, with firm change management to avoid scope creep, overspending and time-wasting. Together we can help you understand how to work within cost and time constraints while retaining maximum flexibility.

At every step, we focus on solutions, leveraging our creative background, collective experience and network of consultants to manage time, cost, quality and scope.
