A landmark merchant villa in Herne Bay, Auckland, was given long overdue attention by its new owners. Salmond Reed Architects was engaged to work closely with client, builder and interior designer to transform what had been a “half-way house” into an attractive large family residence.
Salmond Reed Architects’s input included coordination of widespread repairs and heritage refurbishment as well assistance with the incorporation of modern interior features.
Salmond Reed have been advising Department of Conservation on repairs and conservation of Cape Brett Lighthouse and Keepers Cottage, located on a remote peninsular in the Bay of Islands. The lighthouse was constructed in 1909 and listed as a Historic Place Category 1 with Heritage New Zealand Taonga Pouhere.
Turangawaewae Marae is supremely important to Māori as seat of the Māori King Movement (Kingitanga) and official residence and reception centre for the Māori monarch.
Restorations can be a long time in the making and the St Clement’s Maori Anglican Church in Ahipara is no exception, as Salmond Reed Architects started the process of investigations, research, and reporting as early as 2005. This prominent church in the Far North has exceeded all expectations with its bright new sanctuary window, entry porch, and distinctive bell tower - all in time for its Sesquicentenary in 2024.
