The 7th Annual HECO Invitational Ambrose Golf Day was again a success for 2025.

The North Shore sun was shining on Takapuna Golf course, as five teams of golfers brought their A-games on the day in a tightly fought 9 holes of golf. With a very close game played by both Symonite and ACMF , the Symonite Bay of Plenty team (in black) managed to scrape through by one shot, retaining the trophy for yet another year.

A special mention to the golf cart drivers keeping everyone watered and organised. A great day of camaraderie mixed with friendly competitiveness.

Until next year.

Stunning use of screens in the facade of the new Sealink Hamer Street Ferry Terminal in Auckland City, installed by the Auckland Symonite Panels team.

In preparation for the 36th America’s Cup, SeaLink relocated from Wynyard Wharf to Hamer Street, repurposing a disused boatyard. The project beautifully integrates maritime references and Māori narratives. The textured concrete facade on the ground floor resembles a sea wall, while the upper floors feature a folded metal screen inspired by seawall sheet piling.

Artist Maaka Potini (Ngāti Tamaoho) explains, "The pattern itself is called Unaunahi, scales of the fish, representing the tides. The design shows the incoming tides, while the untouched screen represents the outgoing tides."

Location: Auckland City
Architect: .nz
Products & Work: Textured concrete facade with folded metal screen

Well done to Mike and the Waikato Symonite team for a stunning result. The Equitone in the warm hues looks amazing, completing yet another incredible project in the education sector.
