The head office at Powerco is an open-concept workplace designed with several collaborative nodes and meetings spaces, encouraging staff to interact more by actively working together in a dynamic environment. UFL was engaged by Boon Architects to provide a range of furniture for indoor and outdoor spaces, from occasional tables and leaners to meeting chairs and stools and ottomans. Defining the main collaborative and breakout area is a six-piece modular soft seating unit made with high- and low-back sections, designed and manufactured in New Zealand by UFL Design Studio. This project was awarded at the 2019 Western Architecture Awards for ‘Best Commercial Architecture’ from the New Zealand Institute of Architects.
