We were engaged to design and renovate a heritage beach hut located on Titahi Bay beach. Our scope included 3D BIM modelling, and supplying construction drawings as well as carrying out the building works.

The interior was fully gutted to make way for a new layout. A custom marine-grade plywood partition now separates the front-of-house space—repurposed as an entertainment and art studio—from the back, which includes a new custom kitchenette, additional shelving, cabinetry, a reconfigured shower all sitting under new mezzanine storage.

We re-lined the ceiling with plywood to create a clean, paint-ready finish and also constructed a bracing system for the front door to protect against future storm surges.

Finally we carried out leak repairs on the roof, including installing new flashings, roofing sheets, and sealing the structure against high sea spray exposure.

This renovation was completed to prepare a three-bedroom home for the rental market, with a focus on improving functionality, appearance, and tenant appeal.

The project involved removing a double-sided brick fireplace that served both the master bedroom and living room via a shared flue. Over 5T of blocks were carefully demolished and removed.

In its place, a new partition wall was constructed, opening up the living space. A section of the original structure was repurposed to build a custom triple sliding wardrobe.

We also constructed new cabinetry, damaged doors and windows were repaired, and minor internal demolitions were carried out where needed.

Externally, the team completed targeted weatherboard and fence repairs, along with light landscaping to enhance the presentation.

This multi-staged renovation included retrofitting all bedrooms with new wardrobes and cabinetry, full skim coating of interior walls, and gutting and rebuilding the bathroom with a new Cubit bathtub, alcove shower, vanity, and vinyl flooring.

A new office space was built in the garage using timber framing and plywood linings. Exterior work included refurbishing a garden shed with a new floor and paint, and replacing the old front of house fence with a new paling fence.

A BIM model was used to support both consented and non-consented works, including documentation for a new ULEB Metro Fires wood burner installed in the living space.
