Set on one of Uptown Auckland's main roads, the 900sqm gallery space is easily accessible and highly visible with a bold street front presence.
Brought together as a house of brands, Good Form now represents Mr. Bigglesworthy, our vintage foundation brand. With the updated space we have been able to showcase each brand in a considered, curated way. Referencing interior spaces we've seen in Europe and from high end interior designers, we worked with the industrial building shell and layered in a juxtaposition of contemporary fixtures with suspended lighting.
We also simplified the lines of the space, in collaboration with designer Gidon Bing. Revealing the texture and detail of the saw tooth roof at 86 Newton Road has been one of our major accomplishments in the first stage of creating the gallery. Previously covered by a layer of suspended ceiling tiles, it has been a huge process to celebrate the natural light and original architecture.

Layers of light, texture and architectural detail which have been revealed with the restoration of the building.
The building was originally developed in the 1950s for Watson Steele & Ganley, Electrical and Mechanical Engineers. We tracked down some pictures of the original look of the building and while working to edit and renovate the building ourselves it has been a process of discovery to see how the building was once used, likely with a mezzanine floor. We have gone through a careful process and pared back the spaces to reveal the sky lights and incredible saw tooth roof, making space for our collection of furniture, lighting, objects and rugs in an environment which doesn't hide the age of the building or the layers added by each tenant in its 70 year history.
