At Highfield Architecture, we believe a home should be more than just visually striking - it should work beautifully too. Based in Mount Maunganui and working across New Zealand, we bring over a decade of experience to projects ranging from residential renovations to high-performance multi-residential. Our approach balances performance, comfort, and aesthetics, resulting in spaces that support everyday living, beautifully and comfortably.

Having worked both in New Zealand and France, we bring international experience to local projects and a commitment to creating homes that outperform the minimum standards. Too often, houses look impressive but are expensive to run and uncomfortable to live in. We see the New Zealand Building Code as a baseline — not a benchmark — and design beyond it to deliver healthier, more efficient, and more comfortable homes.

We work closely with clients, consultants, and builders from the very beginning, ensuring the whole team is aligned from concept through to completion. Whether it’s a family wanting a healthier home, a developer seeking well-performing design, or a homeowner aiming to get more out of their renovation, our focus remains the same: delivering architecture that is thoughtful, enduring, and uplifting to live in.
