What our clients have to say
“They understood and embraced the vision for HIKO hub, and played a crucial role in bringing the space to life, creating a workplace that would resonate with industry, and provide an almost immediate payback on our investment. Right from the outset Alexander and the wider Designwell team were great to work with. Their work on designing and refining the physical spaces within the hub has played an enormous part in ‘telling the story’ of what we are trying to achieve. They understood that HIKO hub is rooted in the connection points between industry, students, research and innovation, and the numerous ways in which workplace design can facilitate that. From their insights on what would make a flexible office space really work, to their amazing plans and designs for the shared collaboration, events and social spaces, Alexander and the team at Designwell knocked it out of the park.”
Jim Mercer, Chief Operating Officer, Waikato University
"At Fonterra, we strive to create spaces that reflect our values and strengthen relationships with our customers. When we set out to refurbish our meeting and hosting space, Te Mātāpuna Lounge, we chose Designwell as our design partner because of their proven expertise in both brand and spatial design. From the very beginning, Alexander & Jacki worked collaboratively with us, bringing their expertise and creativity to every stage of the project. Their commitment to showcasing the best of New Zealand design and weaving in Fonterra’s brand identity was exceptional. The result is a sophisticated and immersive space that truly embodies our vision. We are thrilled with the outcome and grateful for the passion and professionalism the Designwell team brought to this project."
Diana Deyeva - Group Workplace Manager, Fonterra

We feel an immense sense of pride every time we walk into Panama East, thanks to the impeccable fitout led by the team at Designwell. Our vision was to create a functional space that embodies ‘the future of office spaces,’ and Designwell’s ability to translate this vision into reality with remarkable precision has exceeded all our expectations. Designwell’s team designed with their audience in mind, ensuring that every aspect of the fitout aligned with our office ethos of productivity, space maximisation, and meaningful connection. The outcome is a dynamic workspace that not only enhances our efficiency with practical collaboration and build spaces, but also includes functional areas for hosting events onsite, breakout conversations, focus time, and alternative workspaces in a hot desk environment.In an era where companies are navigating new ways of working and creating reasons for people to come into the office, the space at Panama East genuinely offers something for everyone and our team coming together for a purpose."
