It draws you in through the clever use of natural light.

A recognized enduring piece of New Zealand Architecture, the Spark Telephone Exchange is a clever modernist interpretation of line and light.

From the moment of arrival this building draws you in through the clever use of natural light and leads you up into a spacious office floor. The combination of high ceilings, low windows and exterior planting has evoked a feeling of space and calm in this office – a rare enough experience in any new office building – and an elevated patio, surely one of New Plymouth’s best outdoor spaces, delivers views of the city and sea.
