A simple extension adds a welcoming and open space for this friendly little beach school.

Working with a tiny budget, and a short timeframe due to funding streams, we managed to open up the Admin area and double the space, creating a warm, light and welcoming entry to the school. Simple materials and clean lines create functional, practical spaces.

Our heritage goes back to the 1950s and we’re proud to have named our business for the physical space that our offices occupy, in a nod to our local heritage, to our place.

Our practice is the largest and most diverse architecture practice in Tairāwhiti. We build on our strong foundation to continuously develop and challenge ourselves.

Our team is experienced in delivering every type of project - from marae to monuments, from commercial buildings to churches, from rest homes to residential dwellings. We are well-equipped to deliver – from the largest commercial projects to the most intimate of residential renovations.

We offer a comprehensive service, delivering an end-result that addresses all the functional and technical requirements of the project, as well as addressing the real needs of the building – cultural and human.
