Aotea centre
auckland
The Aotea Centre is one of Auckland’s most recognisable cultural landmarks, serving as the city’s premier performance arts and entertainment venue since the early 1990s. As part of a large-scale refurbishment and renewal, Custom Carpets supplied Woven Axminster carpet across key interior circulation and public areas, complementing a broader programme of architectural and building upgrades.
DESIGN INTENT
The project aimed to modernise the Aotea Centre while retaining its iconic character. Interiors required durable, high-performance flooring that could withstand heavy public traffic, support acoustic performance, and provide a welcoming, timeless backdrop for performances and events. The carpet design was chosen to harmonise with the Centre’s refined finishes, helping create a cohesive and high-quality environment for audiences, performers, and staff.Outcome
The completed installation delivers a resilient, comfortable, and visually cohesive flooring solution that enhances the Aotea Centre’s interiors. By combining functional performance with a refined design, the carpet contributes to a welcoming, professional environment that supports the Centre’s ongoing role as New Zealand’s premier performance arts venue.
