In Progress

We are thrilled to be engaged in the renovation of a beautiful heritage-listed terrace home, originally built in 1900. Nestled in the heart of Parnell, this deceptively spacious residence opens up to reveal expansive, established gardens with captivating views extending towards the port. Our primary focus will be reimagining the kitchen, followed by transforming the bathrooms, infusing each space with a fresh, modern palette while celebrating the home’s timeless period features. We feel privileged to contribute to the next chapter of this remarkable property’s story.

This will be our second large renovation project we have undertaken for our client. From an inner city penthouse apartment to an iconic beachfront home in need of a significant update, we are excited with overseeing this transformation. This project includes a minor extension to the main kitchen and living area with the inclusion of a new pool and spa to the front, while the inside will be completely overhauled to a high standard. Completion due late 2025.

A private driveway leads to a large waterfront site that was once an abundant orchard. This substantial one level home, comprising of cleverly connected pavilions has been designed for extended family living, entertaining and sitting back watching the ever changing flow of the tide past the pool and the expansive lawn beyond. Due for completion early 2026.

This large renovation project will create a stunning one level family home situated on a large flat site in short walking distance to the beach. After living in the existing house for several years our clients have a clear vision of what was needed and how they wanted to live to accommodate their teenage children. The Nick Rowe design ticks all of their boxes both visually and functionally. Our clients want to ensure they are making the right decisions as they move through this process both with the interior design and selection of finishes through to furnishing. Completion early 2026.

Situated in a prime location, this two level, beachfront property has been designed to reflect our clients fun and vibrant personalities, alongside their passion for travel and love of entertaining. An exterior of natural stone and cedar cladding wraps around a Mediterranean inspired central pool courtyard. With an aligning aesthetic, the interior is to include some glamour and wow moments, with layered, textured and rich in colour furnishings.

Working with Julian Guthrie on a home he designed 20 years ago, we are looking to re imagine this large beachfront house, tweaking the floorplan slightly and overhauling the interior throughout. This house has catered for our clients’ immediate family and will now cater for the next generation coming through. Although the architectural design of the house has stood the test of time, the new interior will create a very different look and feel for our clients. Completion due mid 2026.

This is a beautiful contemporary home with a nod to Japanese influence, and cleverly designed to welcome an abundance of light that filters through to every room. Sitting perched on the cliff looking across Hobson Bay and out to Rangitoto beyond, the views are breath taking.

Stripped back to framing, this is a substantial renovation and extension of a modest villa to recreate a beautifully finished three level family home with expansive pool and outdoor entertaining areas added. Completion including full furniture specification due early 2025.

This large, modern home has been thoughtfully designed for a young family by Nick Rowe Architecture. Generous, well connected spaces offering fabulous outdoor flow to a large lawn and pool area, are encompassed by glass allowing the light to flood through the house at all times of the day. With an exterior of brick and cedar, and clever screening over glazing, it doesn’t give anything away from the front façade until you walk through the front door. Our clients have impeccable taste and this house will be finished to a very high standard. Completion due early 2026.

After many years living in London our clients are building their ‘contemporary meets country’ family home on a large established site on the outskirts of town. Cleverly designed with spaces for everyone including long term guests who may never want to leave… We are enjoying the collaborative process and sharing of ideas within the team ensuring our client’s personality will shine through. Due for completion early 2025.

Our client’s brief to the architect was for a grand family residence and from the moment you arrive through the long tree lined driveway, and enter the expansive lobby, the sweeping curved staircase will set the scene for what lays beyond. A home that has been designed for true family living where childhood memories will be made, and where the door will always be open for extended family and visitors alike. We are privileged to have this opportunity to create this generational home. Construction to commence early 2025.

Situated high on the hill overlooking the surf breaks of Sumner beach, this European inspired home has been designed with casual sophistication in mind.
