We are Shape, an architectural design studio based in Auckland, New Zealand.

The practice is a design-led and client focused studio specializing in residential architecture ranging from large scale subdivision to luxury townhouse developments to premium lifestyle homes.

Our team consists of Registered Architects & Architectural Designers with extensive building experience throughout many years in the industry.

The studio approaches every project with a commitment to design excellence and a thoughtful consideration of site and place. Every design we do is bespoke, and no two projects are the same. This is because no two clients and no two sites are either.

This process involves a collaborative approach, working with and alongside the client to intricately explore notions of design, context, layout, space, light, history, culture, and materiality. We pride ourselves on being able to holistically design and solve a complex of architectural issues to deliver a project that is both appropriate to its context yet seamlessly integrated into the manner in which our clients prefer to live.

We thank and are grateful for our ever-growing network of clients and we look forward to sitting down with new clients to discuss ways we can help their next project take shape.

Plan. Design. Consent. Build.
