Kāpiti Coast District Council

The project afforded opportunity to address significant operational deficiencies in a location that would become the gateway to the civic heart on the Kāpiti Coast. Substantial refurbishment addressed existing and future capacity needs, dysfunctional planning, technology upgrades, and accessibility issues.

The design response embodied partial demolition of the existing building, construction of a new two-storey extension, extensive seismic upgrades, a new public entry, new Council and Mayoral chambers, and provision of open-plan offices within a public-friendly and safe environment for staff and visitors.

Considered attention was placed on spatial planning to ensure appropriate integration of governance and management functions and connections to public spaces. The place of governance on the Kāpiti Coast is now a warm and welcoming destination.
