Christchurch Airport Terminal

A green welcome to New Zealand

This unique living wall runs alongside the luggage conveyor belt in the arrivals lounge, giving passengers a fantastic arrival into New Zealand! 

Baggage reclaim & Living Wall

Native species

The brief was to install a living wall that bought some of the native species inside, but also depicted some of the country’s most iconic mountain ranges.

Christchurch Airport Sign & Living Wall

Feedback gained from both airport staff and customers is that the wall is a great addition to the area.

Blending print and Living Wall

To construct the whole design from plants wasn’t feasible, so the mountains were printed onto a large canvas (this also means it can be changed as required, to another setting). The living wall sits snuggly underneath the terminal sign, bringing to life the whole scene in a truly superb way! 

Living Wall

240 individually planted modules

Plants consist mainly of interior tropical type plants, planted to a random design. Consisting of 240 individually planted modules, the living wall is maintained regularly by our New Zealand distributor.
