The brief

Cover the gathering spaces. Keep the course open.

Lilliput Mini Golf brought us in as part of a wider refresh of their Tamaki Drive site. The brief was to create a simple pergola that would cover key circulation and seating without competing with the course layout or blowing the budget.

The design

Fit the wider renovation.

Sanctuary worked alongside the client's architect and engineer, refining the frame around existing foundations, services and the renovation budget. Steel and aluminium framing in Dulux Slate Blue Matt gives the acrylic roof a simple pitched form.

The design

Coordinate the structure with the venue.

Our role on this project was supplying and installing the structure to the architect and engineer's drawings. Installation was sequenced around venue operations and the other trades completing cladding, lighting and course upgrades.
