During COVID, Sally Holdgate Architecture was approached by an entrepreneurial Mount Maunganui family, to design and obtain a building consent, for a 41m2 studio in their backyard. This project provided their growing family and business with additional space to work and accommodate guests. The studio includes a large storage area, an open-plan flexible space for a bed, desk and kitchenette, and a bathroom. Additionally, we were tasked with designing a separate private entrance and considering the connection between the studio and the existing house. To ensure the studio complimented the existing dwelling, the same cladding was incorporated, while vertical shiplap timber was used to highlight the alcoves, giving the design a modern fresh look.

“Sally at Sally Holdgate Architecture successfully designed our village project in Matamata. She was very professional and positive to work with, really capturing the essence of the community we wanted to develop and she fully delivered on our brief. We were very impressed with how Sally translated our vision into beautiful and livable homes, with her clever use of space and eye for detail creating buildings that look good and work really well. A strength is how she considers accessibility in her design, which was especially important as our development is for people over 55 to live in. She worked collaboratively with us and took on board feedback to ensure our build process was efficient. The documents she provided also made our consenting process straight-forward. We hope we can work with Sally again on another successful project in future.”
