St John’s Church replaced the original church building dating from 1910.

The new church is a single space, square in plan, and rotated 9 degrees off axis. The interior is defined by a glulam pine structure. Divided into 5 equal bays, the space between each structural grid consists of either glass or larch battens.

North and south facades are predominantly glass to provide a visual continuity from the park opposite, through the church, and into a rear garden. The solidity of the west facade provides visual and acoustic privacy from the street. A tall slender window in this wall provides a glimpse to an established oak tree on the street verge.

The weathering steel facade contrasts the neighbourhoods mixed architectural styles, while complementing the tones of the many trees along the street and park. The glazed public façade is screened with vertical timber fins set at an angle to the church façade.

The new St John’s Church provides versatile space for the parish’s three separate congregations. Sliding doors connect the space to the existing foyer and provide spill over area for larger gatherings.

We entered the build in the 2018 Registered Master Builders Commercial Awards. We were awarded a gold in its category. All images supplied were provided by the Registered Master Builders.

Building relationships, setting standards, passion, and communication.

As professional builders we work with clients to understand their needs, goals and expectations and by forming close working relationships, meet and exceed them.

With more than 30 years of providing high quality building services to Hamilton and the Waikato, we believe that we are able to help you. Our role, other than building high quality homes, offices, schools and other buildings, is to deliver a stress free process to the highest standards.

We approach every project as if we are working on our own home or office.

These simple, honest criteria influence everything we do as a company. Our years of experience have shown us that by taking the greatest of care with the detail of your project, the project runs smoothly and we achieve customer satisfaction. 

Our team is made up of time served and experienced builders and carpenters who truly love what they do for a living. This passion for our work sets us aside and has built our reputation as one of the leading building companies in Hamilton.

At ArchiPro we recognise and acknowledge the existing, original and ancient connection Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples have to the lands and waterways across the Australian continent. We pay our respects to the elders past and present. We commit to working together to build a prosperous and inclusive Australia.
