Our People

Our team and the services they provide are our greatest asset. We ensure their continued education and a working knowledge of the latest international sources of laboratory design theory and practice.

We have first hand knowledge of NZ standards as a result of being involved with drafting and commenting on new or revised standards, or leading seminars on the interpretation and practical application of regulations and standards.

The practice consists of three directors and 14 in-house architects, designers, technicians and support staff.

Because of the nature of the work we do and our desire to be fully involved, we ensure that a Director is continuously working on each project and that the best team of specialists is selected. We draw on the strengths within the company, as well as involving any necessary outside specialists such as structural and mechanical engineers and surveyors.

When working with us you will soon appreciate that we are team players, who have a passion for architecture and a strong desire to find the best solution for our client.

Staff members are selected for a project based on their skills and experience.

Our Focus

Innovative and practical design skills combined with our knowledge of laboratory function and laboratory standards, allows us to focus on and deliver cost saving benefits, improved workflow and a better utilisation of resources. We bring creativity to conventional problem solving, along with our technical depth, fluency and foresight.
