This industrial development within the Frankton Flats included the construction of a workshop, maintenance and storage facility with ancillary office space above for Triple Star Management Limited.
The brief was to provide a ‘one stop shop’ for both our office staff and the storage and maintenance demands of our company, and this presented a number of challenges. These included designing our building to ensure office and storage and maintenance demands could be compatible in terms of access, the manoeuvring of large vehicles, controlling solar gain, providing circulation areas, staff and client parking, and acoustics. Another design goal and challenge of this building was the need to future-proof it for any potential growth or change of use.
The resulting design includes a large and light open-plan office space, reception area, kitchenette, bathroom and two meeting rooms on the upper level and further boardroom, kitchen, bathroom, toilet and office and storage space directly below.
The large single-level maintenance and storage buildings that sit on either side of the two-storey office building provide ample storage and racking space, with the layout also enabling a forklift to easily manoeuvre between the storage systems.
This development included a total GFA of 980m2, with the larger, ground floor building comprising 622m2 and the remaining 358m2 being spread over the smaller, two-level office building.
The external appearance was to be simple and modern. It also had to be economical and efficient to construct, as well as appropriate to the industrial zoning and surrounds. In response, the building was constructed using precast concrete panels.
The interior of the building is modern and practical, and includes a combination of timber flooring and carpet, plywood desks and cabinetry, timber-lined feature walls, a number of steel features and modern fixtures and fittings.

HOW WE GOT HERE
In 2008, Peter Campbell formed Triple Star Management Ltd (Triple Star) in response to the growing demand from international homeowners and investors for a reliable and experienced single point of contact for all their construction needs in Queenstown and the surrounding Central Otago area.
In 2010, Peter Campbell and Karl Poole re-established Edge Construction 2010 Ltd, with the objective of bringing to the market a company that could provide quality construction with effective project management.
The two companies merged in 2015, to become a comprehensive and professional main contractor with integrated services over the entire project cycle. Triple Star is the amalgamation of the two companies and it is now owned by a group of employees who manage key areas of the business, with Peter Campbell and Karl Poole as Company Directors.
Peter is both a qualified builder and project manager, with a university degree in Project Management and Valuation. He has successfully delivered a significant range of commercial projects, including hotels, hospitals, apartments, office buildings, and many retail and high-end residential projects in both the North Island and Queenstown.
Karl completed his apprenticeship with Edge Construction whilst building the prestigious Blanket Bay Lodge near Glenorchy. His attention to detail and building skills were recognised and he progressed quickly to a foreman role. Since this time, over the past twenty years, he has managed the delivery of multiple high-end residential and commercial projects around Queenstown. These include Lot 22 at Wyuna Preserve, 'The Peak' on Queenstown Hill and, most recently, the villa development at Blanket Bay Lodge.
