奥克兰动物园行政大楼为支持可持续发展而配备齐全，传达了一种永恒的、自然的品质。这个400平方米的建筑是一个开放和灵活的空间，旨在支持一个高效、健康的工作场所。作为原行政楼的延伸，它具有所有与它独特的地点相关的品质–自然光、绿色和与在那里工作的人一致的轻松的工作环境。与工作场所战略家BGIS合作，团队实现了工作场所设计的巧妙整合，形成了一个通过灵活性、生产力和参与度支持可持续发展的空间。
Fully equipped to support sustainable growth, The Auckland Zoo Administration Building conveys a timeless, natural quality. The 400sqm building is an open and flexible space designed to support an efficient, healthy workplace. As an extension to the original administration building, it has all the qualities you would associate with its unique site – natural light, greenery, and a relaxed working environment consistent with the people that work there. Working alongside workplace strategist BGIS, the team achieved a skillful integration of workplace design, resulting in a space that supports sustainable growth through flexibility, productivity and engagement.
这里没有指定的办公桌，有大量的合作和思考空间–最值得注意的是夹层上的图书馆书架和软装饰品。夹层还提供了俯瞰Pridelands的视野，让员工与公共空间有一定的联系。建筑物长长的水平线平衡了一侧的隐私和另一侧通过全玻璃幕墙的开放性。接待处和一个开放式厨房构成了建筑的核心，访客等候区与厨房的闲聊互动不可分割。
There are no assigned desks and plenty of space for collaboration and reflection – most notably the library shelves and soft furnishings on the mezzanine floor. The mezzanine also provides a view over the Pridelands, giving staff some connectivity with the public spaces. The long horizontal line of the building balances privacy from the public on one side and openness on the other via a fully glazed façade. The reception and an open-plan kitchen form the heart of the building, with the visitor waiting area integral to the chit-chat of kitchen interactions.
设计团队选择了低维护、低成本、可持续采购的材料，以反映奥克兰动物园的环境价值。在室外，垂直的木材覆层、翅片和百叶窗的组合与钢制屋顶和细木工制品一起舒适地坐着。在内部，裸露的大跨度木材层压门户创造了结构，同时也提供了一个灵活的无柱工作空间。
The design team chose low-maintenance, cost-effective, sustainably sourced materials to reflect Auckland Zoo’s environmental values. Outside, the mix of vertical timber cladding, fins, and louvers sits comfortably alongside steel roofing and joinery. Inside, the exposed large-span timber laminated portals create structure, while at the same time delivering a flexible, column-free workspace.
该建筑具有自然光和被动通风的低能耗特点。建筑物外墙玻璃一侧的垂直木片提供了遮阳–并为飞行中的鸟类提供保护。低层和高层的水平百叶窗控制空气流动，因此在夏季，热量被从玻璃上吸走，而在凉爽的季节则有同样的反作用。
The building has a low energy profile with natural light and passive ventilation. Vertical timber fins on the glazed side of the building exterior provide shading from the sun – and protection for birds in flight. Horizontal louvers at the lower and upper levels control air movement, so in summer months heat is drawn away from the glazing, with the equal and opposite effect in cooler seasons.
