Alterations and additions to an Art Deco home. The clients wanted seamless additions to the existing house, including a new en-suite on the upper floor and internal alterations. The new outdoor living on the west was over several floors and added a depth and texture to the otherwise flat facade. It also connected the house to the garden and pool which were disconnected in the original design.

Architecture & Design Ltd. David Frost B.ArchDavid’s interest in composition and proportion began at university and ended up as the topic of his final year thesis project. That, along with his strong focus on the physical context, and his philosophy to reflect the character of the people who will be living in the buildings he creates or alters, forms the basis of his design philosophy.Since graduating from architecture school, he has worked in several architecture and interior design companies in London, Wellington and Auckland and he set up his own practice Architecture and Design Ltd in 2009.David worked for an architectural practice in London that specialised in Historic buildings, which is where he got his first taste for that kind of project. He worked on several 300-400 year old London buildings, doing renovations and additions. He still enjoys working with older buildings, as well as designing new buildings from scratch. David has done a lot of interior design work over the years; including residences, airline lounges, office fit outs, cinema complexes and restaurants. He finds this immensely helpful when designing buildings as he is constantly thinking about the interior and exterior simultaneously, looking at the building in context and how the furniture might be placed. This results in an integrated approach that flows from the interior to the exterior of his house designs, and often includes the landscape design of the outdoor spaces.
