Howden

In this transformative project, Studio DB played a crucial role in supporting Howden’s strategic workplace vision, delivering a seamless, end-to-end design and procurement solution that aligns with the company’s dynamic growth. Having recently undergone an expansion and the acquisition of Apex Insurance, Howden required a future-ready workspace that would support its evolving needs while staying true to its people-first philosophy. As a leading firm at the heart of Auckland CBD, Howden’s new office reflects its global presence and commitment to using insurance as a force for good. Designed to foster collaboration, innovation, and employee well-being, the workspace is crafted with sustainable, high-quality materials that align with Howden’s values.

The environment offers flexibility and choice for employees. With workstations, enclosed meeting rooms, open collaboration areas, and multi-purpose social and event spaces, the design enhances connection and productivity. In addition to design and delivery, Studio DB also managed the furniture procurement, ensuring a cohesive and high-performing workspace that supports Howden’s strategic goals.
