This renovation began 11 years ago on the original homestead built in 1875. Chris designed the extension in keeping with the original architecture & detailing tripling its size.     

Set in beautiful gardens overlooking Lake Taupo with breathtaking views, this renovation is a tribute to the owners, builder and designer...

About the
Professional

We specialize in all areas of design - architecture, interiors, and landscape architecture.

After 25 years of designing homes, Chris MacPherson of MacPherson Architecture Ltd. lives and breathes design. He listens to and understands intently each and every one of his client’s personal needs, and then brings each client’s dream project to life, materializing his understanding of his clients in a unique and stunning way.

Chris and Robyn MacPherson believe that every New Zealander deserves a beautiful home that they love; and they are crazy passionate about seeing their clients get exactly that. Seeing the current state of the majority of houses in New Zealand, they knew they had to be the change.

Cold & damp in winter with condensating windows. Hot & sweltering in summer, expanding & contracting - most NZ homes cannot cope with our changing climate. Chris & Robyn wanted more than a 10 year master builder’s guarantee for their clients.

Their journey took them all the way to Europe, where homes and buildings are warm/cool, strong, meet the utmost quality & performance levels and last many, many generations.

Having watched the evolution in building and design in New Zealand over the past 25 years, Chris & Robyn knew that Wienerberger’s POROTHERM clay block construction system is the perfect building solution for New Zealand.

If you want to live exceptionally well in a healthier, 100% natural, permanent home that will truly last, then POROTHERM is for you - we love to talk about this, so give us a call.
