the gas project

Its done! Well, almost. Gas No. 02 is back on the road after a diet and some minor surgery by Michael Dobson. All work on the ’70 v7  is reversible, so it can go back to a stock look in a day. I’m not sure its any faster than it was originally but it’s sure nicer in the corners.

Huckle & Co are a newly opened fish and chip shop in Seatoun. Gas worked with the owner Dave Thurlow (ex Polo) on the interior design, brand and signage. Named after a Richard Scarry character (the clients nickname as a child), we looked to keep things bright and fun. It seems the locals like what Dave does as often there are lines out the door. Try the fish. Heck, try everything. Just get there early on a Friday.

After years (really) in the joiners being refitted, the new Gas southern office had its unofficial opening in January. We ditched the shag pile and dodgy 70s mock wood to create a space for relaxing (and working). Actually we’re still trying to get the wifi up. Best to phone first.

Best Ugly is a bagel factory and cafe in central Auckland. Gas worked with Chef Al Brown to develop the identity, print, signage and web materials to promote and package the best (and hand-rolled – hence ugly) bagels around. Serve toasted.
