We are a small but fine architectural studio specialising in home design, from renovation of your quirky bach, to high end new homes.

Located in the beautiful coastal towns of Piha, Auckland and Whangamata, on the Coromandel Peninsula.

Work with us to bring joy and delight to your every day living.

Call us to help unlock the full potential of your site or space, and create a home that is a joy to live in, that is timeless, practical & durable, and designed for the way you actually live.

We believe great homes are shaped by the way people live. That’s why listening closely to our clients is central to everything we do. We work collaboratively to clarify your vision, navigate challenges, and uncover creative solutions — often in ways that surprise and delight.

Orientation, natural light, ventilation, and the rhythms of daily life guide our designs. By prioritising these elements, we create homes that are resilient, beautiful, and effortlessly harmonious — not only highly functional but spaces that inspire you every day.

Having designed numerous homes in exposed coastal environments — and living active outdoor lives by the sea ourselves — we understand the demands and rewards of coastal living. We design buildings that respond carefully to their setting, using durable materials that weather naturally and beautifully over time. Timelessness in architecture is always our aim.

We are equally passionate about renovations and additions as we are about new homes. Reimagining existing houses often reveals hidden potential — improving awkward layouts, unlocking light, and creating spaces that feel far more generous and functional than before. Seeing clients rediscover their homes with renewed joy and ease is one of the most rewarding aspects of our work.
