Description

We believe context is everything. Each place, person, and story shapes the designs we create. Understanding and interpreting context requires empathy and connection. Our design responses are thoughtful and enduring. No matter the scale – from a small interior, to a large-scale master plan, understanding our client’s realities – their context – is at the heart of what we do.

We aspire to deliver beautiful outcomes that people love, and we’re proud of; while being the easiest architecture practice to work with.

It is our systems design thinking and solutions at the front end, working with consultants, manufacturers, clients and contractors that makes all the difference.

Our studios in Auckland, Tauranga, Christchurch, and partners in regional locations, enable us to deliver our services locally, and to national networks alike.

Context’s future-focused approach includes the use of 3D imaging technologies, the strategic adoption of Ai, and the development of innovative tools including our client portal.
