Cheshire Lofts - Launched to Market

With a wealth of experience across multi-sector projects in the UK, Middle East and New Zealand, Michael’s portfolio is extensive, to say the least. Following a recent 6-year anniversary at Ignite, we caught up with Michael to discuss his design experience across multiple continents, his plans for the future and how it all began.

Theja is an Architectural Graduate who joined Ignite in 2017. An integral part of the Aged Care team, Theja has also been an active member and leader in Architecture + Women NZ for a number of years, helping to launch notable events with the association. Get to know more about Theja below.

Following a recent 6-year anniversary at Ignite, we caught up with Michael to discuss his design experience across multiple continents, his plans for the future and how it all began.

In late June, key members of the Ignite team attended the National Retirement Living Summit at the RACV Royal Pines Resort on the Gold Coast.

Ignite are pleased to announce several recent promotions, welcoming fresh perspective into prominent leadership roles. The recent appointments recognise the passion each individual shows for their design craft and their commitment to Ignite’s clients and projects.

Ignite are pleased to announce that Cheshire Street Apartment Lofts have now been launched to market. Drawing on Parnell’s industrial heritage, Cheshire Lofts bring a new style of living to Parnell.

As a main public corridor, Hume Street Plaza contributes to an important new chapter in Crows Nest's public transport infrastructure.

Tenants get high-quality, convenient living without the permanency and costs associated with buying; investors get stable rental revenues without the hassle of managing new leases every six months.

Ignite is pleased to announce the internal appointment of ten designers from our Auckland, Sydney, Tauranga, and Queenstown studios. The appointments include Mark Crean to Director, Shara Paulo, Fabien Leclercq, and Jose Dall'asta to Associate Director, and Caroline Bartlett, Enrica Flore, Nina Horvath, Rita Mouchi, Sam Castle, and Sophie Griffin to Associate.

We are thrilled to share that Associate Caroline Bartlett, Leonie Neuweger, and David Madsen have been appointed Registered Architects by the New Zealand Registered Architects Board (NZRAB).

55 Corinthian Drive is one of the most sustainable new buildings on Auckland’s North Shore, but it’s going one step further – it’s encouraging its people to behave sustainably, too.

The new leadership role responds to the continued growth of our Wellington, Christchurch, and Queenstown studios.

Over Ignite’s 35-year history, we have continued to expand our team to deliver projects across a range of industry and regional markets. Following this continued growth, Ignite is proud to announce the promotion of five Associate Directors to the newly established ‘Sector Lead’ position, with three Directors also now named as Principals.

Ignite is delighted to announce the appointment of Associate Director Kevin Adasko, who joins the specialist commercial team.

Originally featured in Architecture Now's 2020 Vision Series, Sector Lead Audrey de Filippis explores the increasing awareness of global citizenry and shared value and responsibility, including the role of design as we enter a new decade.

At Ignite, our Tauranga studio is playing an exciting role in responding to the city’s growth. Our anchor projects include the mixed-use Farmers development at Elizabeth Street, and the recently completed Latitude Residences on Park Road.

At a practice-level, Shara’s passion for human-centric architecture has seen her become a Wellness Leader at Ignite. She has been instrumental in the development of a wellness methodology and design approach, which considers how design might improve the human experience of a space.

Ignite picks up Gold, Silver, and Bronze for three projects at the NZ commercial project awards.

The bungy tower will be the main attraction of the Waitomo Sky Garden, which will be a world-first tourist attraction when completed.

Operating from 1 Searle Street, Ignite's Queenstown studio is perfectly placed to partner with developers, investors, and property owners throughout the region.

Newport Beach has a unique urban brand, which was built on the initial principles of its founders and the subsequent adaptation due to environmental challenges.

As designers, we're fortunate to spend our days problem solving and adapting to change. When faced with a challenge like this, our innovative thinking helps us create solutions, fast.

As the world settles into quarantine measures, working from home is starting to feel second-nature to many of us. Maybe you’ve found that the ironing board has a surprising range of movement as a stand-up desk, or that the cat provides some good workplace banter. Whatever your set-up, people around the globe have embraced this new way of working.

Innovation in tech is like any other business objective: once you have the vision for where you want to go, it is the users and the culture they create that will drive the change.

Hotel Grand Chancellor is bringing a new 12-storey hotel to Auckland Central, offering 191 guestrooms and suites for business and leisure travellers.

At its core, BTR is about placemaking. The design response must create a tailored, convenient living experience that fosters a sense of community and keeps people coming back for more.

We love to tell the stories of our people and our places through design. Placemaking is at the very core of our practice.
