MCAS - Max Capocaccia Architecture Studio
Architects in Oxford, Canterbury, New Zealand
Average rating: 4 out of 5 stars27 November 2017
“When it came to building our own house, Max and his team came on board to help put the finishing touches on the design and detail up our plans. They were very accommodating, considering that, as clients who work in the industry, we were very much a part of the process. Max helped to push some aspects of the design architecturally, and we are really happy with the end result. They were professional but still approachable and friendly to deal with. MCAS are passionate about sustainable design, which is very important to us too, so they were a great fit for us and our project.”

“I have worked with the BBA team providing landscape design services for several residences around Christchurch and have found them fantastic to work with. They are enthusiastic and responsive to new ideas, materials and approaches and their expertise in sustainable design strategies provides a great inspiration for environmentally friendly landscapes. Perhaps the best testimonial is meeting BBA clients who remain totally in love with their homes many years after it was built.”

“Nick Mann and his team were superb to deal with throughout the complete design and build of our commercial building. Without Nick's excellent guidance, patience and professionalism our project may not have been completed. If you want to have a relationship with honest, hardworking and excellent designers who put the client first, then I fully recommend AO Architecture.”

Dominic Hassan Architect Ltd
Architects in Oxford, Canterbury, New Zealand
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars19 October 2018
“Dominic Hassan Architects created a design that respected and enhanced our mid-century modern Wellington home, when we asked him to design our extensive home renovations. From the inititial concept, through to completion, Dominic was responsive to our aspirations, yet sensitive to our budget. Visitors to our home are always impressed by the special touches in the design detail. Everyone LOVES our kitchen design, and they comment about how well the design of our entry foyer compliments the 1960s character, while achieving modern ease, and making a feature of our gorgeous view. Dominic responded to our needs, while encouraging us to consider design options we had not considered. He guided us sensitively through the design process. Dominic gave us confidence while working with our builder as we always knew that he was taking responsibility for any challenges that arose. We are thrilled with the outcome, and highly recommend Dominic for anyone considering renovations that can allow their home to shine.”

Design Factum Limited
Architects in Oxford, Canterbury, New Zealand
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars28 April 2018
“With his international background from both Italy, Venezuela and modern Shanghai; Belfiore fully understood our brief as we tried to incorporate our experiences from when we were living in Spain, Egypt and Brazil. Our hill section was truly challenging because of its unusual shape and steepness, however; Belfiore designed the house in a way that is not only stunning but also very comfortable in terms of spaces and thermal performance, a real pleasure to live in. Everyone who visits us is amazed of how well the house flows, both from the outside-in as from the inside-out. The design was also a result of several meetings on which the need to go beyond ordinary office hours was never a problem as Belfiore is strongly committed to arrive at a design solution that reaches a high level of uniqueness while being architecturally sound and, as in our case; includes all client's wishes.”

Architect or Architectural Designer FAQs
An architect is a professional who designs and creates building plans, ensuring the building is functional, safe, and aesthetically pleasing. They collaborate with clients to understand their needs and create designs that meet their requirements. Architects also consider building codes, regulations, and sustainability principles in their designs. They may oversee the construction process to ensure it aligns with the design intent.
If you are looking at a house extension or building a new home from scratch, chances are you are going to need the help of a residential architect. They have extensive knowledge of architectural design, construction methods and building materials, not to mention a strong appreciation of ergonomics – warmth, light and flow within a property. Architects will also be far more capable of seeing the bigger picture – carefully balancing aesthetic appeal with structural safety. With their local knowledge, your Oxford architect will also often help to obtain planning permission and building regulations approval.

    After choosing a residential architect, you will usually start with a consultation to discuss the project. Preferably at your property or building site where the work will be done. Give as clear a picture as possible of the kind of home you are trying to create to your architects. Chat through your goals, projected budget, scope of work, schedule and feedback, together with any very specific requirements you might have. They will explain their process to you alongside any other on-site visits up to and including the build stage, depending on whether they will be involved at that stage. From there they will produce the designs and plans required for your project.
    The cost of hiring an architect in Oxford can vary depending on the scope and complexity of the project, experience, reputation, and location. Architectural fees are typically structured as a percentage of the project’s total construction cost, ranging from 8% to 15%. For example, if a project has a construction cost of £500,000 and the architect’s fee is 10%, the fee would be £50,000. It’s advisable to discuss fees and payment structures with architects in Oxford during initial consultations.
