Approach

Your home is not just another building. It’s the place where you spend quality time, where you recharge. It needs to be comfortable, delightful and effortless. At Meta Architects we are passionate about designing beautiful high performance architecture to create enduring homes for generations to come.

Efficiency

We create solutions that are efficient in space, resources and time. With your brief and budget we apply our planning expertise to achieve a hard-working home that is adaptable for changing lifestyles. We know what works within the NZ building industry, and we know how to get the best performance and quality from the materials and processes available. 

Enjoyment

Home is a place to be enjoyed, inside and out. Through material selections and spaces that connect seamlessly to the outdoors, we design homes that bring pleasure and fit beautifully into their surroundings. We work with sites ranging from dense suburban to rural and use our urban design experience to maximise enjoyment of any site, regardless of size.

Comfort

As Certified Passive House designers, we are knowledgeable in the physics of building performance. We apply our expertise from the very first site visit, ensuring our thermal design decisions throughout the process are driven by science, not guesswork. Each project is analysed by Passive House software to enable a clear understanding of the limitations and possibilities of a particular design.

Collaboration

We have fostered partnerships with our trusted consultants and contractors, and involve them from the early design stages as part of our standard process. This ensures we achieve the quality you expect, in realistic timeframes, at a realistic cost. Our clients often come to us informed about Passive House design, and we value working with clients who are passionate about creating better buildings.
