Waitohi Design
The Waitohi building work is nearly complete and we're very excited to see the interior taking shape.
Johnsonville was once the site of a dense native forest and this is paid homage to in the architectural features of the space. The pillars represent tree trunks which reach up to a simulated canopy with dappled light.
