Overview

Running a black and white stripe pattern unbroken across floors, walls and ceilings takes millimetre coordination between every trade. Complete Construction delivered two flagship Sephora stores in Auckland, a 600m² two level store at Sylvia Park and a 450m² single level store at Westfield Newmarket. Both were built to Sephora’s global design standards, with high end finishes and bold branding.

Key challenges

  • Lining up the black and white stripes across floors, walls and ceilings.
  • Coordinating several trades and suppliers to the millimetre.
  • Managing client supplied and custom joinery inside strict brand tolerances.

How we solved it

Our joinery team produced precise shop drawings, coordinating the structure, finishes and services so the striping stayed continuous. Client supplied joinery was assembled on site, and custom elements were made locally to meet Sephora’s brand tolerances.

Outcome

Both stores opened on time and to international specification. Across two Auckland flagships, Sephora pairs technical detailing with precise retail delivery.
