The green spaces in Oceania’s workplace fuse leading-edge interior design with the restorative elements of nature.

Our evidence-based design ensures this commercial greenery supports the health and wellbeing of Oceania’s people.

Oceania’s workplace in Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland features restful green spaces that help their people thrive. Collaborating with Warren and Mahoney, our experts developed commercial greenery inspired by the project’s design narrative, creating a ‘home away from home’ – with tangible biophilic connections and an emphasis on wellbeing.

Outside In applied biophilic design principles to prioritise nature within this workplace.

The creative office greenery highlights the many pieces of statement joinery specified by Warren and Mahoney. This starts at the main entry where sculptural planting accents the sweeping curves of an in-built timber planter. Our evidence-based approach ensures these green spaces support the health and wellbeing of Oceania’s people and helps them to feel at their best. Mature specimens in freestanding planters complement bespoke furnishings. Plants of different heights add points of interest to delineate break-out zones and meeting areas. Green vantage points encourage collaboration and add privacy to support different working styles.

At the entrance, aerial planting invites your gaze upwards and outwards towards the office’s expansive views of the Waitematā Harbour and Tīkapa Moana Hauraki Gulf beyond. Freestanding planters in custom colours in neutral and terracotta hues complement the interior colour palette. Greenery is layered to achieve visual impact, density, and rich colour. Statement planting brings warmth and texture. Bespoke botanicals create areas of privacy and respite. This commercial greenery reinforces the quality of the interior. Careful planning and a considered design by Outside In team ensured the vision of the client and Warren and Mahoney for bringing nature into the space was realised with ease.
