Renovations + Extensions

As experienced renovation architects based in Auckland, we transform homes across the city — solving the problems that frustrate you every day, unlocking the potential of your site, and creating a home that genuinely works for the life you have now. At Rogan Nash Architects, renovations and extensions have been a core part of our practice since 2012. Our renovation projects have won BEST Awards, NZIA Auckland Architecture Awards, and been featured in Homestyle, HOME Magazine, and Here.

The most common renovation challenges we solve

Every renovation is different. However, across the many homes we have worked on, a handful of challenges come up again and again. Layouts that made sense when the house was built but no longer reflect how families live today. South-facing backyards that receive little sun and feel disconnected from the indoor living areas. Kitchens that are isolated from the rest of the home. Rooms that are dark, closed-off, or simply too small.

These are the problems we are experienced at solving. Whether the answer is a rear extension that steps down to the garden, high-level windows that bring in morning light, or a reorganised floor plan that connects the kitchen to the outdoor entertaining area, we find the solution that is right for your specific house, your site, and your family.

Renovation architects working across Auckland

As renovation architects working across Auckland, we bring first-hand knowledge of the house types, the councils, and the constraints that shape each suburb. We have completed renovation and extension projects across a wide range of Auckland suburbs. Our work includes projects in Westmere, Grey Lynn, Mt Eden, Meadowbank, Glendowie, Cox’s Bay, Western Springs, Parnell, and many more. Because we work across such a range of house types — from 1920s villas and bungalows to 1960s and 1980s homes — we bring a broad base of experience to every brief.

What to expect from the process

A renovation with Rogan Nash begins with a thorough understanding of your existing home — its structure, its potential, and its constraints. From there, we develop a design that is tailored specifically to your house and your life. We manage the consent process, work alongside your builder, and guide you through every decision from concept through to construction.

Throughout the process, our integrated architecture and interior design service means one studio handles both the building and the interiors. As a result, nothing gets lost in translation between the two.

A home worth staying in

The best renovations do not just fix what is broken. Instead, they reveal what a home was always capable of being — and give you a place worth staying in for the long term. That is what we aim to deliver on every project.

Architecture for a lifetime of living.
