The Buchan Group bolsters auckland office with senior appointments
Award-winning design firm The Buchan Group has appointed two new Principals.
Award-winning design firm The Buchan Group has appointed two new Principals, Rob Guild and Robert McFarlane, to its New Zealand practice. Their appointments follow recent strong growth in the New Zealand offices and history of designing and delivering a wide range of projects across the country.
Most recently the Group won the 2016-2017 Asia Pacific Property Awards for Retail Development and Retail Architecture for its work on NorthWest Shopping Centre at Westgate. Other recent successes include The Brickworks at LynnMall, The Landing at Wigram Skies, Rolleston Town Centre, 819 Colombo
Street and 144 Kilmore Street (including our new studio) in Christchurch, and the first stage of Five Mile in Queenstown. Other major projects underway in design and construction include Tauranga Crossing, Pegasus Town Centre, Sylvia Park Auckland, Manuka Bay Lodge and The Bay Hill, Timaru.
The Buchan Group Managing Director Greg Sheehan said “While New Zealand continues to grow in the retail and commercial markets, the mixed-use sector is showing great strength and the appointment of both Robert and Rob adds to our capacity to remain at the leading edge of this field.”
Current Auckland practice Principal, David Thornton added “Rob and Robert not only increase the firm’s leadership base in New Zealand, but also bolster our skills and expertise particularly in mixed-use.”
“Both Principals have a passion for architecture and design and are committed to delivering the very best outcomes for clients and end-users. Their wealth of expertise in delivering successful projects gives The Buchan Group a competitive edge.”
