The clients had purchased a 93sqm cottage with asbestos cladding, it was a deceased estate. The bones of the house and its orientation were good. It is built on a lovely bush site, with water access, and protected bush. A resource consent was required to renovate in a coastal yard. They proceeded to refurbish every space inside, reclad, reroofed and developed a two car garage and workshop below. 

It was the new deck, sliders and deck roof that drew the living spaces into the lovely environment. The kitchen, dining and living area was opened up, with a long entrance hallway that displays the clients artwork. Glazed balustrades increased the connectedness, and picture windows in most rooms captured the pristine native bush views.

About the
Professional

My aim is to provide you with a personal service, listen to your requirements, and produce something that will add to your quality of life. The project must be affordable, enhancing the existing built and natural landscape it sits in. Its aesthetic is generated from your preferences and the existing context.

I hope to create something better than expected yet still within your budget!

It can start with project feasibility studies, and pre purchase design consultation, then move to preliminary sketch designs. These can be developed to include colour and joinery design, then resource consent and building consent plans, through to builder selection and project observation. I am happy to guide you step by step through the process, and all the while ensuring you’re comfortable with the pace. I believe in having integrity in all we do, and you’ll find our service straightforward, and honest.
