Fisher & Paykel’s Auckland Experience Centre

A home for our brand and a place to inspire bespoke architecture, kitchen perfection, and the life lived in the heart of the home.

Created in partnership with Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei, it includes sculptural elements and a natural materiality that reflects our identity and sense of place.

With luxury kitchens by Boffi, Arclinea and Henrybuilt, the Auckland Experience Centre is designed to inspire kitchen perfection.

Explore a complete range of kitchen and fabric care solutions, style choices, integration details and design freedom – or book a curated, chef-led culinary experience in the Social Kitchen to see insight-led food care and wine preservation brought to life.

Do I need to make an appointment?

You can visit the Experience Centre, at 199 Great North Road, Grey Lynn, Auckland, during the hours of Tuesday to Friday: 9:00am to 5:00pm or Saturday: 10:00am to 2:00pm.

However, to take advantage of a mastery of temperature culinary experience, or to arrange a design consultation, you will need to book by emailing aucklandexperiencecentre@fisherpaykel.com.

Who is the experience centre for?

The Experience Centre showcases premium appliances in a space that is very different from retail environments and appliance showrooms. While it is designed to host global and local architecture and design partners, we also welcome anyone interested in learning more about our appliance solutions and the design potential of our products. The Experience Centre is programmed with events and educational experiences that will inspire, inform, and connect to the needs of all visitors.

What can I expect?

The Experience Centre is a stimulating creative environment composed of several key moments and spaces. There are three hero kitchens designed in partnership with Boffi, Arclinea and Henrybuilt, each showcases the characteristics of our minimal, contemporary, professional, and integrated products, as well as different performance solutions, detailing and placement options.

There is a premium outdoor kitchen showcasing DCS products, luxury laundry and wardrobe spaces showing ways to create a complete fabric care ecosystem, an apartment kitchen illustrating compact living solutions, several product galleries, and a Plan & Choose Studio with resources to meet the needs of visiting architects and designers, and their clients.

What is a social kitchen?

The Social Kitchen is the heart of the Experience Centre. It is a large kitchen, dining and wine experience space that brings to life the food care, cooking performance and dishwashing insights that underpin our approach to product design. The Social Kitchen is used for mastery of temperature culinary experiences, which are an opportunity to understand the science, performance and human insights behind our appliance solutions: how cooking methods, temperature and heat types combine for perfect flavour and texture, and how different cooling methods, temperatures and humidity levels combine for perfect food care and wine preservation. Bookings are essential.

Can I buy appliances at the Experience Centre?

No. However, if you find something you like, take a note of the SKU code(s) and contact Kirsty at the New Zealand Certified Builders (NZCB) National Support Office, kirsty@nzcb.nz. Kirsty will supply you with the NZCB members price and discuss further details with you about placing an order.
