Designwork has been undertaken around the Pacific, including Australia, Canada, Fiji, Papua New Guinea and Malaysia

Design of sound, practical, trouble free buildings

The firm has had a vast experience in almost all aspects of architecture and interior design and a small sample of previous clients are: -

Taupo District Council
Tauranga Bridge Committee
Salmon Family Trust
Bank of New Zealand
The BOP Polytechnic
Tauranga District Council
Port of Tauranga Ltd.
Many government agencies
Many housing groups.
 

In exercising our Contract Management skills our practice applies peer reviews with its partners at critical stages in the documentation and construction phases. This has assisted in ensuring projects are completed on time and within budget and in avoiding design errors. We also find computer aided drawing documentation enables an extraordinary capacity to adjust drawings and incorporate changes or improvements without undue delays.

We have demonstrated our ability to upgrade outdated buildings as evidenced by Taupo Airport Terminal (NZIA Design Award), Port of Tauranga Administration Building (BOMA and NZIA Design Award), AMP Office in Gisborne (a listed building NZIA Design Award and an Environmental Award) and the recent BNZ Cameron Road Building.

We are skilled at interior design – refer Port of Tauranga Administration for which we were fully responsible for interior design and furnishing and the Salmon Medical Centre.

As designers we have extensive knowledge of buildings and their systems.
