Te Pūtahi, Auckland Film Studios
The Auckland Film Studios site was expanded to include two new world-class sound stages, each covering an impressive 2000m2. The expansion will accommodate the increasing demand for film production studio space in New Zealand.
The building, gifted the māori name Te Pūtahi, was developed by Tātaki Auckland Unlimited and co-funded by the Government’s COVID-19 Response and Recovery Fund and Auckland Council.
Located adjacent to Auckland’s western rail line, the acoustic design of the sound stages was an important consideration during the design process. The project focused on three key design principals: flexibility of use, acoustic performance and vibration isolation.
It was completed within 22 months and achieved Green Star sustainability benchmarks, marking a first for a building of this kind in New Zealand.
