Architects in Whatawhata, Waikato

“Our house was finished 10 years ago, what I remember was that Geoff Lentz and I had a lot of laughs in the design process and still enjoy catching up from time to time. I showed him pictures of what we wanted and he came up with a stunner. I would change things now (not a lot), but one has to live in the house to learn that.”

“"We have nothing but gratitude and appreciation for Aaron and his team. From the outset we were made to feel like we were priority clients # 1; upon talking with other customers this feeling was obviously not unique to us. All our questions, queries and opinions were treated with consideration and respect which is all we could ask for. We started the design process with some ideas of how we wanted the house to look and function and then Aaron took our ideas to the next level and made them a reality. He had the ability to create space where we could not and turn our simple squares into unique architectural flair. He often came up with multiple solutions to issues and helped us evaluate which alternative best suited our needs. We believe that Aaron's design process resulted in the perfect balance of individuality without compromising functionality. Once the design was finalised Aaron has the contacts and expertise to turn drawings into construction. He has knowledge of local builders, tradespeople and suppliers that gave us choices and options of which we would otherwise have been unaware. Throughout the build Aaron and the team were available to reassure us and answer any questions we had. The single biggest learning that we took away from the building process was that people who are recommended by others rarely let you down. Consequently we would not hesitate in recommending Aaron and his team to anybody considering building a home. In our experience Aaron takes pride not only in the design of your home but also going the extra mile all the way through to completion!" Hamish Bond”

“When I was looking at building a house at our beach property at Whangamata, I was told to call Smartdraw Architecture. I met up with Nick with some concept plans I had drawn and discussed my intended project with him. I was impressed with the speed and outcome that Smartdraw Architecture produced and we were very happy with the design. The whole process from design to working drawings and then building consent seemed to me to be very seamless, a lot I believe to be due to Smartdraw Architectures attention to detail and also his efficiency in dealing with any issues. I would not hesitate in recommending Smartdraw Architecture to any prospective home builders.”
