An intensive development brief, fitting 6 luxury townhouses onto a site made for only 2 in a suburban christchurch setting. These townhouses were a response to the need for medium density development, yet they facilitated this while improving the amenity of the area, and maximising benefit for the residents. Set behind a landscaped boundary, we orchestrated 6 modern houses into the site with private outdoor space, while pitched roofs and a subdued colour palette cement the development as appropriate to its suburban context.
Stufkens+Chambers Architects is a talented, progressive practice with award-winning registered principals who take great pride in consistently delivering quality architectural design that offers creative, innovative and functional spatial solutions to a wide range of clients, developers, organisations and government bodies.
We have experience and expertise in a wide range of projects and take great pride in consistently delivering creative architecture and interior design solutions to commercial, residential, retail, office and hospitality clients. Our approach is to work collaboratively and to challenge and inspire each other to find the best possible outcomes on each project.
The practice goes beyond the replication of style and convention and approaches each idea or project from a foundation of considered research, drawing inspiration from the contextual surroundings, the landscape and its textures and light. Referencing these they will interpret their relevance so your built space sits elegantly within the environment selected. Stufkens+Chambers continually strive for architectural clarity, logic, functionality and an element of delight in all their conceptual design work, ambitiously striving to meet or exceed your expectations from concept and design to specification and build.
As qualified architects, great emphasis is placed on the quality of the detailing, not just structurally and artistically but the continually referencing the experience inside and outside the space as the guide to a more 'wholistic' solution embraces everything from the architectural idea to the nature of the construction materials used to express it.
At Stufkens + Chambers, we are also a proud member of the New Zealand Green Building Council (NZGCB) a not-for profit, industry organisation dedicated to accelerating the development and adoption of market-based green building practices.
Underpinning all our work is a technical excellence and effective project management that provides direction, advice and guidance throughout the building process. Complimenting this, we only operate under best practice processes and risk management solutions that only enhance your experience.
