This innovative project was the first to feature our award-winning biophilic product, the Forest Wall®.

Realised through a collaboration with the client and CPRW, the Forest Wall® imbues the Air New Zealand premium check-in at International Terminal of Auckland Airport with rich colour and lush texture. It adds a welcoming and calming presence which evokes the native forests of Aotearoa New Zealand.

Life-like contouring features green nooks, mossy crannies, and fine detailing built into undulating curves.

Using the principles of biophilic design, the Forest Wall® weaves nature into the building form. It invites Air New Zealand’s passengers to experience the majestic native bush. The unique surfacing and contours echo the natural world. It is as though trickling water has moulded, weathered, and etched shapes into the rockface. To achieve this, each segment of the Forest Wall® was sculpted by hand by our moss artisans in free form. Tufts and layering of preserved moss are interspersed with living plants. The use of native New Zealand ferns, which are commonly found in the forest sub-canopy, add authenticity to the concept. The density of preserved moss adds tantalising textural layers.

Like its name suggests, the idea for the Forest Wall® design came straight from the forest. It was inspired by a mossy-laden rocky outcrop found within a conservation walk. Our design ensures the greenery thrives despite the challenges of the space being entirely without natural light. Innovative grow lights create the effect of sunlight filtering through a forest canopy overhead. These create leafy shadowing, adding depth and realism to the native bush experience. Layering of the moss adds visual impact and supports the idea that there is a high density of living planting. Our Outside In experts meticulously designed the Forest Wall® to enable quick and easy installation.
