Frankton SIPs Panel House banner

Designed for a young family, this house lies under the flight path of Queenstown Airport. High levels of energy efficiency and good sound insulation were paramount. The house utilises the Kingspan Tek SIPs panel and European windows, with a balanced heat exchange system to maintain and retain heat.

The design "salutes to the sun", with its orientation, and rising elevation to the North. Main views of the lake to the west are given prominence with large windows in the living areas, and main bedrooms. Moveable shading screens along this elevation will enable potential overheating to be avoided in the summer months when the Queenstown west sun is at its most intense.

Team Green Architects was established in 2013 by Sian Taylor and Mark Read, with the purpose of offering New Zealander's a better solution when it comes to designing buildings. Based in Queenstown, we’re lucky enough to be able to design buildings in some of the most beautiful locations you can imagine.  

In five years our dedicated team has grown, and is committed to creating, energy efficient and beautiful buildings. 

Team is an important part of what makes Team Green Architects. When you choose to engage Team Green Architects, you become part of the team. Your thoughts and ideas are a vital part of the process. In addition to the inhouse team, Team Green Architects has an external team of consultants, contractors and suppliers whose knowledge and experience is valued throughout the process. The sum of all these team members is helping us to reach our vision "to set a new standard and fundamentally change the way buildings are designed and constructed in New Zealand."

We want to change expectations of how people live in New Zealand. We also want to change expectations of how we as a country design and construct buildings. With Team Green we make sure every project makes a difference to the quality of life for our clients and to the world around us.  Our promise from day one is to work closely with you to ensure your brief and your dreams are fully understood. We make sure we get to know what is really important to you. We will join you on your journey, and together enjoy creating something exceptional.
