Last week Brad presented our @takaka_cohousing project at the local NZIA branch PechaKucha night. This format sees multiple speakers present 20 images for 20 seconds each in a fast paced and fun evening. Thanks to @nzia_nelsonmarlborough for organising and @twothumbbrewerynelson for hosting in your awesome venue! #nzarchitects #architecturenz #cohousing

Recently Brad and Arrun from our team attended the @nzia_nelsonmarlborough Tauwāhi Cultural Capability Workshop here in Nelson. There were some very valuable learnings about Te Tauihu (Top of the South) from Jen @thirdspace_aotearoa #nzarchitects #nelsontasman

Emmaus Dental - these renders are for a new dental clinic interior fit out in Richmond, our latest design that has just started construction. The practice are undergoing a re-brand with @mixmedia_nz and we are working together to create a calming interior that reflects their brand. Built-in seating, natural timbers, along with pops of colour will give the current dental practice the lift it deserves. #architecturenz #interiordesigns #healthcaredesign #dentists

It was all about the angles for us on this beach house project. A tight site with panoramic views meant that to maximise sunlight and spatial requirements we needed to design some interestingly shaped spaces and changes in level. The contractor, Foothold Developments dealt with these complexities expertly and has completed the home to an extremely high level of finish. #nzarchitects #architecturenz #beachhouse #outsidethebox 📸 @virginiawoolfphotography 🔨 Foothold Developments 📐 @redboxarchitects

New project alert! This compact, contemporary take on the 'elegant shed' was an exciting opportunity for us. When a North facing section came up for sale, one of our staff here at Redbox jumped at the chance to purchase and design a new small home of 90m2 on a tight budget. Six months later, the home is completed (on budget) and has some high spec features not often seen at this price point: automated interior lighting, tiled wet areas, and in recognition of the designer's flair for the 70s, herringbone timber flooring throughout. The home also recognises the requirements for a sustainable home in the 21st century: PV solar panels will be installed, electric car charging, heat pump hot water system and heat recovery/mechanical fresh air systems all ensure that this house will meet future living requirements and reduced energy consumption. Given the success of this build, we are keen to follow it's lead and look to continue with this ethos for future high quality, low cost builds. Watch this space... Interior shots coming soon! #architecturenz #nzarchitects #sustainableliving #affordablehousing 🔨 Dan Anderson Building 📐 @redboxarchitects

Some wintery goodness for you today ❄⛄🏂 We have been busy with a few house concepts recently - this cosy Hanmer Springs holiday home is the perfect winter base for everything the alpine village has to offer. A hop, skip and a jump to the thermal pools or for a hike up Conical Hill 💦🗻 #hanmersprings #architecturenz #cabin #winter

Fresh off the drawing board - this concept for a steep site in Nelson allows for single level living over a basement garage. Maximising sea views while also providing a sheltered rear terrace, it will be a home for all seasons. #nzarchitects #conceptdesign #housedesign #nelsontasman

Views for days! This recently completed holiday home boasts 270 degree views capturing all the action on the water up the coast and in the bay below. #nzarchitects #architecturenz #nelsontasman #holidayhome #interiordesign 📸 @virginiawoolfphotography 🔨 Foothold Developments 💡 @makerdesignstudio iO Pendants

Welcome home. Upon entering a house we like to create a space to decompress. A transitional space between inside and out. A space to gather your thoughts, shed some layers and at this time of year...get cozy. This entrance has it all, coat & shoe storage, epic views and a bespoke artwork featuring the original front door of the site's historic bach. #bachlife #holidayhome #architecture #nzarchitects #interiordesign 📸 @virginiawoolfphotography 🔨 Foothold Developments

The waves are on! We are stoked with the result of this feature sliding door between bedroom and ensuite in this recently completed holiday home. #architecture #interiordesign #nzarchitects #wave #holidayhome 📸 @virginiawoolfphotography 🔨 J Lewis Building
