Featured Reviews for Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Whangarei

Solarei Limited
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Whangarei
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsFebruary 7, 2020
“We enjoyed working with Duncan from Solarei. He actually listened to what we wanted for our project and he came up with detailed plans that met our needs and reflected the coastal environment in which we live. He managed the project through the complex regulations of our local government body and obtained all necessary consents and approvals. If future developments require any architectural input, they will be referred without hesitation to Solarei. Wade and Sue Rowsell, Kerikeri, New Zealand”
jo hill designs ltd
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Whangarei
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsApril 2, 2019
“This is the second time that we have had the pleasure of working with Jo on the design of our house. Initially some years ago, on a Devonport Villa renovation and alteration that saw the house double in size and most recently on a new build on a challenging but stunning rural site. Both times Jo designed a home that met our brief and exceeded our rather over-exacting expectations, that was specific to the site and location and local council planning rules. Jo managed to achieve what others had not managed to achieve before her on this site. She comes with a unique blend of design talent and building expertise so has a wealth of knowledge not only in design but the practical application of those designs and an in-depth knowledge of council’s ever changing planning rules. We have a home that is an absolute pleasure to live in, with great flow, that maximises space and makes the most of our unique outdoor setting.”

Is the scope of your home design project beyond simply replacing countertops or flooring? It’s the responsibility of a Whangarei home architect to transform human needs and desires into visual concepts and habitable structures. When you hire an architectural designer, you are not only hiring someone for their architectural services, but also to manage and coordinate other parties involved in the project. As you search through local Whangarei, Northland, New Zealand architectural firms and designers, keep in mind the following tips to help you choose the perfect one: 

How do I find the best Whangarei residential design architect for my project?


It is best to hire a residential architect who will be involved in all phases of the design process, from the initial concept to the completed construction. They are often the first person you will hire for your project, and it's common for architects' contractors, or subcontractors, to prefer working with one another, which means better relationships and smoother work on your home. Interior architects are also involved in negotiating contracts for all involved participants, from builders, to engineers and even landscapers. It is for these reasons that it is extremely important for you to have a good relationship with the Whangarei residential architect you hire. He or she can be the tie-breaking vote between you and the general contractor and can be your biggest advocate during the construction process. Different residential architecture firms in Whangarei, Northland, New Zealand provide different services, so the scope of the work can span from pre-design environmental impact studies to selecting furniture and finishes, depending on what your specific needs are.

Questions to ask prospective Whangarei interior architects:


  • What is your fee structure?
  • What does the cost include?
  • Do you have professional liability insurance?
  • Can you handle my special requests (ADA, LEED etc.)?
  • What types of renderings (3D, video, illustrative) will you produce?
  • What is your experience with similar projects?
  • When do you expect to start and be finished with the project?
  • What do your services include? (It's best that the services are until construction is completed.)
  • What happens when the cost exceeds the budget?
  • Can you provide me with references?
  • Would you say your work has a defining style? (This is important in case the architect's personal style will interfere with your vision.)
  • Will you help with hiring a general contractor and subcontractors?
  • What do you estimate the cost will be?
  • What will I need to provide?
  • Are there any complications you foresee with this project?
