Designed as modern houses, they have a respect for the character context of Mt Cook.

Located in the middle of the busy and somewhat iconic character filled Wallace Street, these four townhouses respond to the unique characteristics of this particular site. Designed as modern houses, they have a respect for the character context of Mt Cook, they are have a restraint in their scale, form and language that sits comfortably within the surrounding neighbourhood.Careful design has efficiently created integrated internal and external living, with the intimate courtyard spaces of each house being a private extension of the ground floor open plan living.
Each townhouse has two upstairs bedrooms, with ceilings following the roof lines creating a sense of volume to make the most of their efficient layouts. Carparking has been kept to a minimum, responding to the location within easy walking distance to the CBD and directly on a major bus route.

"We tasked Solari Architects with a brief to build a quality and affordable apartment complex. They yet again exceeded our expectations."

About the
Professional

Solari Architects specialise in multi-unit, residential and commercial throughout NZ.

We take your vision from pictures, words, half-formed or full-formed ideas and “ya knows” and translate them into architecture representative of your values, goals and personality. Our strengths lie in multi-unit, residential and commercial architecture projects where we work on the small and the large.

We’re all about less ego, more client. We know it’s cliché but the world is a village and our reputation is everything. Our work is the most vocal representation of our brand.

That’s everything from the way we communicate with our clients, consultants and local authorities, the documentation of our work, our interaction with contractors and of course the quality of the build.

We are all a bunch of architecture nerds at heart. The challenge of a project, be it a complex site or budget constraints, is exciting as it forces creativity and ef ciency. We crave opportunities to solve real housing problems through great living solutions more than chocolate, coffee and wine combined. We continue to educate ourselves at all times to be the trusted advisors that our clients need us to be.

It all starts with a chat

We get together and you tell us what you’re hoping to achieve.

The things we’re interested in are: the project site, your timeframes, your expected budget and your vision. We’re always happy to show you our previous work and talk to you about how we can work with you. You can bring cuttings, mood boards, words, scribbles, Pinterest boards, music - just anything that helps us get an idea of what you’ve got in mind. Also, tell us who you are. Knowing a little more about your lifestyle, family, hobbies, goals and an entertaining story helps us put together a together a complete picture of requirements and allows us to give you an accurate quote for our services.

From there you can decide if you want to partner with us to work on your project (fingers crossed).

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.
