Sekta Architects

SEKTA take a hands-on collaborative approach to the design process working closely with clients, taking the time to listen and understand their business. This enables us to make informed design decisions which properly reflect our client's immediate and future economic and strategic requirements.

This design and management strategy is adopted through all phases of a project, ensuring that all project stakeholders and the design team work toward a common goal.

SEKTA Architects Ltd uses the latest BIM (Building Information Modelling) software to produce three dimensional representations of the final built form. From these 3D models we are able to produce all detail design drawings and renderings. Even at the conceptual phase of a project, we are able to quickly test ideas and help the client visualise the building to ensure a complete spatial understanding is obtained. This understanding gives clients greater peace of mind when moving into the more detailed phases of a project.

Using such software enables us to adopt a more collaborative approach to the design process where all consultants are working from the single information model source resulting in high quality design and documentation that is consistant, coordinated and complete. The result of this is fewer variations during construction.

SEKTA are committed to the principles of the New Zealand Green Building Council, these principles are inherent in the way we design and in the materials selected for each project.
