Featured Reviews for Wellington Architects

Wright & Gray: Architects Ltd.

Wellington Architects

12 November 2017

“I have worked with John on an extensive home renovation. He is a great architect to work with and I am pleased to being doing another project with him. He has a wonderful collaborative and inclusive approach, which means the clients and professionals working on the project all feel valued.”

Holmes Architecture

Wellington Architects

27 June 2017

“We had designed our first new home ourselves, but second time around it wasn’t so easy. We had a basic concept in mind, but couldn’t bring it all together and “make it fit”. We chose Mike for two reasons, firstly he’d been recommended by a friend to check him out and we loved the look of his previous designs, and secondly because he’d completed a builder’s apprenticeship. It was important to us that our architect also had practical building knowledge. Mike came back to us with a design that incorporated all the things that we had asked for, but also added some quirky features and design elements that we would never have come up with on our own. He visited us on site, and was always respectful of our preferences and worked hard to pull the whole design together. We would definitely recommend him to others who are looking for a professional, considerate, and innovative architect.”

Wellington Architects

“Stefan did an amazing job designing the reno for our Kitchen and Lounge area. The package he provided was perfect for bringing to builders for quotes and gave us some great ideas.”

Mackit Architecture

Wellington Architects

5 July 2016

“We chose James and his team at Mackit because we loved his contemporary modern design style. The team made the process very easy and their detailing, care and attention as both a master builders and architectural designers was exceptional. They were fabulous at listening to our brief, designing and then building our project. The project was delivered to deadline without any unexpected costs to us, something that we’d never experienced with previous design or building projects. The Mackit builders were unfailingly polite, communicated really well and were a pleasure to deal with, especially important with our young family living on-site during the build. The result is brilliant and much better than we envisaged. We frequently refer James and the team at Mackit to our friends and family and wouldn’t hesitate to ask him to design and build any of our future projects.”

Spacecraft Architects

Wellington Architects

9 March 2016

“Tim and Caro designed for us the exact house that we wanted, with the addition of a few key elements we didn't know we wanted until we had them. They are considerate, communicative, expect excellence of themselves, without a hint of arrogance. I would, and often do, recommend Spacecraft whenever I have the chance.”

Unit7 Architects

Wellington Architects

15 November 2017

“Sally undertook the conceptual design for the major renovation and extension of our Brisbane post-war bungalow. She has adeptly managed to retain elements of our home’s mid 20th-century charm yet decisively bring it into the 21st century. She has carefully listened to and met all of our requirements. Sally is an exceptionally talented architect with a wicked sense of humour, which has made the whole design process a lot of fun. We highly recommend her.”

HWA ltd

Wellington Architects

21 August 2019

“This is the second project I've engaged HWA for. I wouldn't have gone back if I wasn't happy the first time - and this project has been just as successful. Happy to (and frequently do) recommend HWA - just as long as he doesn't get so popular and busy that he can't work on my next projects :-)”

Green Design Core

Wellington Architects

6 April 2020

“This is a test This is a test This is a test This is a test This is a test”

Click Architects Ltd

Wellington Architects

27 March 2017

“My husband and I hired Carolyn Walker of Click Architects Ltd to provide architectural services and advice for our house renovation. She assisted us through the whole process from concept designs up to the completion of the project. I found her extremely professional, helpful and her advice timely and accurate. We worked well together and she helped create a renovation that exceeded our hopes and expectations. I would definitely recommend her to potential clients.”

First Light Studio

Wellington Architects

1 February 2015

“Calm, spacious, design incorporation is relaxing feeling of character. I am constantly looking for ideas, for my future home addition, can't afford much as a single parent so small spaces with large feeling of the outside inside helps the feeling of being locked in all the time..(I live in a home with no character but functions as a shelter.”

A well-chosen architect can design a home that is specifically tailored to your family's lifestyle. Highly competent and professionally-trained designers, many architects in Wellington also use sustainable design principles to maximise the site and materials used, so your home uses less energy and saves you money in the long term.

If your renovation is more than a simple benchtop replacement or roof re-tiling job, then it may be time to find an architect in Wellington who can manage your project from start to finish. Depending on the architecture firm you hire, the scope can span from planning sustainable design into your renovations, to selecting furniture and even interior finishes.

How do I find the right architect for my home design project?

An architect is often the first person you hire for your project. Before taking steps to find an architect in Wellington, ask yourself what you want to achieve from your renovation or home construction. Do you want to improve the liveability and sustainability of your home, or simply expand? What style of architecture do you prefer? Once you have established your motivation, research architects that have completed similar house designs in your Wellington locale and within a comparable budget to yours.

Undergoing renovations, house extensions or building a new home entirely can be stressful. For this reason, it’s important that you and your chosen architect get along and share the same values, especially if you require an architect to help you refine your brief. To establish this rapport, you may need to meet several times with the architects on your shortlist before making a final decision on who you hire. The relationship you have with your architect is very personal, and will involve discussions of your habits, hobbies and tastes, so you want to ensure you have picked someone you feel comfortable in sharing this information with.

Most importantly, you need to trust that your architect will manage your home improvement or house design within budget, while working with site constraints, and coordinating the relationships of all parties involved in the project.

Ideally, your Wellington architect will be involved in all phases of the design process, from the initial concept to the completed construction. Your architect may be needed to select and hire Wellington subcontractors (e.g. builders, engineers and landscape architects) just as they may need to negotiate contracts with stakeholders. A good client-architect relationship will ensure they are your biggest advocate along the way during construction.

Finally, remember that the most well-known or established architect may not provide the right architectural services for your needs. It all comes down to the individual project.
