Located to Auckland’s busy CBD Waterfront between Victoria Park and The Waitemata Harbour, Wynyard quarter continues to develop with new friendly shared spaces for people to walk and cycle. Incorporating high quality street furniture and dense planting, the area has a strong focus on sustainable design and construction whilst retaining the sites unique maritime past.
Walkspace has been involved in one form or another since 2009 providing design solutions and street furniture to the very first stages at Jellicoe Wharf. Our latest involvement centred around Daldy Street supplying high quality standardised and bespoke street furniture in a wide manner of formats and materials.
Walkspace supplied a wide range of Auckland Council (AC) standardised furniture, Walkspace catalogue furniture as well as bespoke street furniture site wide. AC waterfront seating in Full Seat, Half Seat and Bench formats formed the core seating requirements. Additional long length seating configurations were also supplied offering more seating options at busy locations.
Walkspace catalogue items included the BN_02 Twin Recycling Bins, BR_01 Bike Racks and DF_01 Drinks Fountains which included a water dog bowl. Customised Walkspace BL_02 Corten bollards also run throughout the site in both fixed and removable formats limiting vehicular access where and when required.
The extensive bespoke furniture palette supplied by Walkspace included the large circular Corten Plinth Benches as well as smaller Corten Perches in a wide variety of forms and sizes, some illuminated with LED lighting. The Corten garden bed edging was fabricated and installed onsite over the course of the project as each stage progressed. The five Corten raingarden bridges which link the footpath to street crossings were also designed and fabricated by Walkspace to precise engineering requirements and exacting site dimensions.
