Hustler
Although this 4th generation family run business is located in Hawkes Bay, Hustler are anything but local. They are a global company and their product is sought by discerning buyers seeking to improve their efficiencies on farms and ranches all over the world.
A company such as this needed a new office befitting that of its standing in the marketplace. Instead of a massive warehouse dwarfing a small office tacked onto one side, this new 2 story office instead dominates their new 6000m² purpose built factory by extending towards the road front a fully glazed modern office building with massive cantilevered roofs giving shade from the ever present Hawkes Bay sun and welcoming local, national and international customers.
The ground floor showroom and mezzanine office are strongly linked by an 8m double height space affording light and views to both. The office upstairs also has access and views down onto the factory floor strengthening that connection between the ideas team and manufacturing team. Meeting and boardrooms are located on the Ground floor along with a full kitchen and dining area that doubles as a staff breakout area and function area for new corporate events and product launches. The many hours of sunshine can also be enjoyed through bifold doors to the side accessing a large landscaped area.
In a field of green and setback 25m from the road frontage with its minimal palate of concrete aluminium and glass, this new facility stands boldly on the site.
