Universal Studios & Music offices are sharing an old Stables building in Newton, Auckland. The original fit-out was very corporate and stark. The new design brings back some of the original character and highlights some impressive structural features.

The walls were redone to create the original concrete effect that is still seen in parts of the building. The wooden flooring adds warmth to balance the industrial elements of the steel beams and the new steel reception desk. Lighting and plants enhance the space and give it life.
