Don Roy

Don is an award-winning architect whose career spans leadership roles in respected New Zealand practices as well as his own successful studio. Known for his authentic approachable manner, Don builds strong, trusting relationships with clients, believing architecture should reflect their personalities, priorities and aspirations.

His design process begins with a clear conceptual idea, carried carefully through each stage of development so the original intent remains visible in the finished building. Don thrives on complex sites that challenge convention and invite creative, and sometimes playful, responses.

Influenced by natural materials and a 'less is more' philosophy, Don's work celebrates simplicity, craftsmanship and adaptibility. He is especially passionate about smaller homes - projects rich in detail, flexible in use and deeply connected to their environment.
