Services and processes

HWA has specialist experience in Residential Architecture and small scale Commercial Buildings throughout New Zealand. 

We design quality buildings that function for their owners through our design oriented, phased processes.

 

Our role is as much about coordinating multiple inputs as it is about designing buildings. 

As an architectural design firm who has a variety of projects across multiple regions, construction sectors and variable budgets we apply varying processes across different project types to accommodate the varying parameters. 

Follow the links below to see who we work with in each project type with some guidance on fees and timeframes.

How to start your new home or alteration project

If you are unsure where to start for your dream home, we make it easy. Many of our clients have never worked with an Architect or Designer before and the idea of starting at the beginning can be daunting. We're here to help you take that first step. 

Step 1

Download our free guide to choosing an architect. This will aid you in being prepared for your first meeting, what to ask and what you might be asked. 

Step 2

Book an initial consultation with us. This is an opportunity to meet each other, ask lots of questions and see if we get along. 

Step 3

Let us know you are ready for a Pre-Engagement consultation. We'll send out a short online questionnaire and book you in for a site visit.
