This project was recognised in the Small Project Architecture category of the 2013 Wellington Architecture Awards, a programme run by the New Zealand Institute of Architects. This was the icing on the cake for the Box™ team. The jury commented that the award-winning 115-square-metre house, built on a steep site in a suburb of Lower Hutt, “provides evidence that cost effectiveness need not be predicated on the mundane.”
As Heyworth (Director | New Projects) points out, “It’s not often that you get design-and-build companies lauded for their architecture!” Truly one (or two or three) out of the box."

This was the seed of Box™. A strong belief that the best way to produce the best homes was through builders, designers and customers working in unison, not against one another.
Success comes through an understanding, appreciation and trust of each other’s expertise. This results in great design – part of which is building pragmatism. This combination of design and build practicality also leads to a unique company culture.
We have designed the way we work on the premise that all projects tend to go really well until the cost gets in the way.
As a result, we take our customers through what we believe to be an industry-leading process: the successful dance of design flair, construction knowledge and budget guidance.
