‘The Inside Job’ started with the owners coming to us after purchasing this early 2000s home in St Mary’s Bay, wanting to make the existing house feel distinctly their own.
Rather than changing the footprint, we focused on carefully editing and refining the interior through a new material palette, bespoke joinery and considered lighting. Oak timber, Dekton Nara benchtops and a soft, natural palette bring warmth and texture, while the kitchen and living spaces have been brought together to create a cohesive, light filled centre of the home.
Upstairs, the main bedroom, robes and ensuite were reworked, alongside the creation of a new home office and powder room. The changes create a more tailored and functional private level, while making the most of the existing roof form, natural light and views over Auckland Harbour.
‘The Inside Job’ is a project about personalising rather than starting again, showing how thoughtful design, materiality and detail can transform an existing home without changing its footprint.

Last October, we moved into our new studio at 845 New North Road, Mt Albert. A space that has quickly become a big part of everyday life at AM Architects.

A place to draw, design, make decisions, spread out over a table, share ideas, debate details, meet with clients and, of course, gather a growing collection plants.
We’ve loved settling into the space and making it our own. It feels like a good reflection of how we like to work, collaborative, considered, creative and connected to the things around us.
If you’re in the neighbourhood, drop in and say hi!

Building Consent has been granted for the Waiheke Island house and construction is about to start! ��
This family house is conceived as a series of calm, layered forms sitting lightly within the landscape. The design balances openness and shelter, framed views and quiet retreat. Generous glazing connects the interior to the changing light and surrounding native bush, while the restrained material palette allows the building to sit comfortably within its coastal setting.
We are looking forward to seeing this house take shape!

In-house renders for a new house on Waiheke Island. This family house that is set to start construction in 2026 is conceived as a series of calm, layered forms sitting lightly within the landscape. The design balances openness and shelter, framed views and quiet retreat. Generous glazing connects the interior to the changing light and surrounding native bush, while the restrained material palette allows the building to sit comfortably within its coastal setting.
The house is planned around everyday living, spaces that are adaptable, warm, and deeply connected to place. It reflects our ongoing interest in a clarity of form, honest materials, and architecture that supports how New Zealand families live and connect with the outdoors.

Sitting on the ridge above Putaki Bay, The Waiheke Revival breathes new life into an early 2000s weatherboard Waiheke Island home while preserving its charm. With distant sea views over rolling hills as the backdrop, the architecture & interior design blends modern comfort with the home’s original character.
A generous new kitchen extends the home out to the north to anchor the new living spaces with the new pool, poolhouse and outdoor fireplace area. A redesigned entry formalises the driveway side of the house and pulls the eye in via a new curved form.
No surface or room within the interior has remained untouched, with a new family bathroom, powder room, ensuite, walk in robe and laundry allowing the clients to personalise their home through carefully designed joinery and selections for finishes and fittings.
This project is a testament to our ability to enhance existing homes with contemporary living in mind while honouring their history and surroundings.

Excited to share photos of the completion of our three townhouse project in Northcross. Designed under the Medium Density Residential Standards (MDRS), this development challenges the idea that higher density compromises quality living.

Situated on a steeply sloping site, the forms step gently down the site, reducing visual bulk while creating generous terraced outdoor spaces. These seamless connections between interior & exterior ensure lower level living areas and bedrooms open onto private, usable outdoor zones, while upper level spaces open onto generous north facing decks - proving that carefully considered design can allow for great outcomes for residents & developers.

More interior photos to come!
