About us
Each architectural project we create evolves holistically from the poetics of landscape & craft, cultural context, sound technical understanding, budget pragmatics & client aspirations.
Founded in 2013 by Registered Architects Ana O’Connell and Tim Lovell, Lo’CA is an NZIA Architectural Practice based on Wellington’s south coast, working across a variety of scales, throughout New Zealand.
Our design process is informed by a strong collaborative approach within the studio and the partnerships we foster with clients, consultants and builders..
With an open-minded approach and clear design intent, we create thoughtfully nuanced buildings that celebrate people’s lives and connect to the New Zealand landscape.

Part of our role is to advise and guide client’s through all stages of the building project.
