Design Experience showcases some of the leading names in architecture and design from around the world. Now’s your chance to grow your knowledge, network with peers and experience first-hand the best your industry has to offer. 

May’s Adaptive Reuse premise is simple: Why start from scratch when you can transform existing structures to meet contemporary needs? But retrofitting existing structures presents a unique set of challenges... 

OMA is a world leader in revitalising and transforming existing districts and heritage buildings, creating new projects with fresh purposes and energy. 

At Design Experience in May, OMA Managing Partner-Architect David Gianotten will share OMA’s global experience, taking a deep dive into projects that demonstrate how districts and buildings can transcend their pasts to serve contemporary needs, exploring the challenges and the concepts of cultural and environmental sustainability along the way. 

There’s plenty of food and wine and the opportunity to earn professional development points. You’ll also see the latest products and innovations from some of New Zealand’s leading brands, including Resene.
