Kiwicare New Zealand and Australia

The Challenge

Delivering a cohesive workplace experience across multiple cities required a solution that could be consistently applied while responding to different floorplates and team needs. The environments needed to support focused work, collaboration, and day-to-day operational efficiency—often within open-plan settings where noise and distraction can impact productivity. Balancing standardisation with flexibility, while maintaining a strong visual identity across all locations, was key.

The Solution

A unified workspace strategy was implemented across all sites, centred on clean, efficient workstations and integrated acoustic solutions. Desk systems were paired with fabric acoustic screens to provide both visual privacy and sound absorption, helping to reduce noise in open-plan areas. Quiet rooms and enclosed pods feature acoustic wall finishes and soft material palettes, creating spaces for focused work and private conversations. A consistent use of neutral tones, paired with subtle brand-aligned colours, ensures continuity across locations while maintaining a calm, professional environment. Supporting elements such as breakout areas, touchdown spaces, and simple, durable furniture enhance usability and flexibility.

The Outcome

The result is a highly functional and scalable workplace model that performs consistently across all four locations. Staff benefit from improved acoustic comfort, better focus, and a clear variety of work settings to suit different tasks. The cohesive design language reinforces Kiwicare’s identity while allowing each space to operate efficiently within its own footprint. The rollout demonstrates how thoughtful planning and standardised solutions can deliver both consistency and quality at scale.
