Projects

Supreme Court Wellington

The Supreme Court building has been a significant addition to Wellington’s and New Zealand’s public buildings and will be a heritage site for the future. Buildings such as the old Government building and Parliament buildings help develop a strong sense of national identity, and so too does the new Supreme Court building.

The new building is surrounded by a bronze and glass screen depicting the strength, durability and stature of the Pohutukawa and Rata tree. The Glassroom produced over 2,500 individual sections of heat treated glass for this gigantic sculpture. The building environment has a refreshingly unique New Zealand atmosphere.

The Glassroom also produced the glass wall panels which are used to line the two sets of elevators

Pescatore Restaurant Christchurch

Pescatore is The George Hotel's premier restaurant.

This total refurbishment included three distinct areas; the white anteroom where diners are greeted and their palettes cleansed, the main restaurant area, and the private dining space which is a meeting room by day and a private dining space by night.

The Pescatore refurbishment has been designed to complement Andrew Brown's innovative food and is one of New Zealand's leading dining experiences.

The Glassroom was asked to produce the internal glass walls and screens and in so doing capture an elegance that The George could be proud of. It is fair to say , that this was achieved.

Scenic Circle Rain Forest Hotel, Franz Josef

This new eco-hotel is now was constructed in 2009.

The hotel incorporates many sustainable design principles and is a soft timbered building designed to melt into and complement the existing native bush.

A quiet and protected rain forest courtyard ensures the 100 guest rooms will have a restful feel and provide the guests with a 100% NZ experience.

The Glassroom was commissioned to produce laminated art glass panels for the Entry Lobby, and front of the hotel. These panels cast soft colours across the atrium floor.

Textured and specially coloured TGR splashbacks are in each of the hundred guest rooms.

Waters Edge Christchurch

Luxury Apartment Complex in Christchurch. Designed by Warren and Mahoney Architecture.

The Glassroom was favoured with providing professional coating services to this exclusive project. Over a thousand metres of Back coated glass went into this luxurious developement.

The Rees Apartments/Marina Queenstown

The glassroom was selected to provide the specialised colour coating for this project.

The Glassroom was chosen because it had the ability to maintain accuracy in its colour palette over the period that this hotel went through the furbishment stage.

Past experiences had taught the contractor that other coating companys did not necessarily maintain colour consistency over an extrapulated period.

We certainly showed that our inhouse systems were not only effective in terms of consistent colour, but our unmatched 24 hour turnaround gave our partners a very real advantage in meeting deadlines.

TE PAPA WELLINGTON

Called in by the General Manager of the Project Management company [The Carson Group] to assure him that the massive Stained Glass commission in the Maori Marae area would be completed in time for the opening of this iconic building.

The Glassrooms team flew to Wellington and provided the necessary skill and efficiency, and as a result completion on time.

Duxton Hotel Wellington

The first of a number of projects with Dalman Architecture.

The Glassroom produced CELTIC cast glass panels for the Restaurant/ bar and bathrooms. Giving the hotel a distinctive and sophisticated New Zealand feel.
