Always awesome to visit our projects years after completion. A+E trusted us to design their family home 7 years ago. We are still loving the details, and the way it has settled into its landscape, as well as family living. .nz

Out and about in the warmer weather, we admired a completed project on a walk last week. Positioned on a quiet corner, Tell Architecture designed the L+J house for a busy family, who love connection to their neighbourhood - wanting morning coffees on their front terrace - but also privacy, with carefully positioned windows and a spa tucked around back.

A smart, simple shape that captures natural light, the double height living space making for a fun, dynamic space. Exposed macrocarpa trusses, feature stair and beautiful tiled bathrooms are moments of joy designed within some tight constraints. We loved seeing this design come to life and settle into the street.

Abigail was delighted to review Te Whare Whakatere, Asburton’s new Library and Civic Centre by for the June/July issue of Architecture NZ. Be sure to pop in and see it for yourself next time you’re in the area, and see why this part of the town is humming! Photography by .

Abigail had the honour of reviewing Marian College’s new home for Architecture NZ’s most recent issue. An innovative reuse project by and example of brave stewardship by the clients👏. See www.architecturenow.co.nz/articles/under-the-roof to read about how the architects cleverly re-used a warehouse structure to become a high-performance environment to learn in.

We are delighted to show you a recent extension to a 1930’s character house in Opawa. A new laundry, open kitchen and entertainment space have taken advantage of its north-western position and private garden setting. Natural light, generosity of space, ease of use, and a touch of glamour were priorities, which we designed to while accentuating the existing house features. So pleased to see such an uplifting space come together for our wonderful clients.

Always a joy to send a house in for consent. We submitted this beauty last week - a 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom house tightly designed in plan with a double height/ mezzanine space over the living area. The client’s priorities of an efficient design with an open sense of space that suited the scale and style of its established street were clear. Looking forward to seeing this one on site!

It was an honour to be a small part of making this book become a reality, and a pleasure to attend the launch last Friday. Thank you for your vision, perseverance and contribution to the history of women ‘Making Space’ in NZ. It was a joy to listen and learn from the women interviewed for the co-housing chapter (Helle , Caro , Camia Young & Robin Allison)
