This discreet warehouse conversion in Ponsonby involved the careful insertion of a mezzanine (complete with fireman’s pole) and utility block into the former manufacturing facility.

“The first thing you notice is the fireman’s pole. There is no way around it – it isn’t every house that has one. Not even every superhero lair has one.”

– Simon Pound – Urbis, April 2010

About the
Professional

Glamuzina Architects is an Auckland based practice established in 2014. We strive to produce architecture that is crafted, contextual and clever. Rather than seeking a particular outcome we value a design process that is collaborative, critical and rigorous.

When designing we look to the context of a project beyond just its immediate physical location to the social, political, historical and economic conditions of place. This results in architecture that is uniquely tailored to the context it sits within.

We work on many different types of projects across a range of scales; from small interiors to large public buildings. Regardless of a project's budget we always prefer to work smart, using a creative mix of materials, light and volume in preference to elaborate finishes or complex detailing.

Our designs have been recognised for their excellence and innovation, winning many national and local awards including two New Zealand Architecture Awards in 2013 for S House and Lake Hawea Courtyard House.
