Greenery that guests photograph

Working closely with Sudima Auckland City, the Outside In team created inspiring green spaces that activate key areas of the hotel. The many picture-perfect green backdrops make a frequent appearance on social media, proving an irresistible prompt for guests to post about their stay. The bespoke hotel planting takes inspiration from Sudima's interior scheme and highlights architectural elements throughout.

From lobby to rooftop bar

Inside the foyer, feature greenery beckons guests into the space, creating a welcoming atmosphere surrounded by nature. For its contemporary bar, Sunset, our team brought the client's vision of 'Vintage Florida' to life through lush tropical planting and a balcony filled with greenery. At East Restaurant, abundant foliage fills freestanding planters, creating anchor points that delineate the flow of people.

The hotel greenery caters to every guest, whether seeking the comforts of home, a shared working space, or a private retreat. An abundance of nature brings a soothing presence into often-busy areas, with views of greenery found throughout. The scale and quality of greenery across Sudima Auckland City is eye-catching, impactful and elegant.
