Passive

The brief was to create an environmentally focused passive-designed home built to withstand the harsh rural Canterbury winter conditions and embrace the warm summer climates that the area offers. Formance SIPs panels and a MAXRaft fully insulated slab were the perfect match for this Waimakariri build. Not only did the SIPs panels go together quickly like LEGO, but the high R values coupled with the Pro Clima building wrap have provided the owners with a warm cozy home in winter and a cool and relaxing home in summer.

About the
Professional

Radley Design is an established family based Architectural design company based in Tauranga, New Zealand. We specialise in renovation and new build projects focusing on design solutions and space optimisation.

Our world is reliant on how we treat our future, so sustainability is a given factor when approaching new projects. We value Smart Eco Design that not only benefits our environment but also considers the lifestyle and approaches our clients desire.
There’s a lot that comes into the design. It’s not just how the house looks at the end of the day. It’s how it fits within the landscape, how it functions with the owners lifestyle and how it utilises space and its environment. All of these factors need to sit within the clients budget which is something we try really hard to achieve.

We value every relationship and work with owners, developers, project managers and all trades and services. This is right from the onset of initial planning stages to ensure an effective and efficient construction and completion of the project.

Scott Radley grew up in Auckland and travelled the world as a professional yachtsman. He represented New Zealand at his first world champs at the age of 14. During this time he studied architecture and fell in love with the innovative design that New Zealand represents and graduated with a national diploma in architecture and is a licensed building practitioner for design. After working in an Auckland practice for 10 years, he made the decision to move to Tauranga with his wife and 2 children in 2011. He has successfully opened his design practice in Tauranga and loves the lifestyle that the Bay of Plenty offers. You’ll regularly see Scott and his family, mountain biking the redwoods or exploring camping spots off the beaten track.

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.
