Building Types

Whether designing a new family home or rethinking an existing one, the starting point is how the people living there actually want to use the space.

Tisylum can support projects from early site and concept work through Resource Consent, Building Consent and construction-stage architectural support.

Lifestyle and rural projects often provide more space, but also require a stronger understanding of the relationship between the building and the land.

Alongside the home itself, the design may need to respond to topography, orientation, views, access, water, wastewater and other site infrastructure.

Residential development requires architecture, land use, density, access, unit planning and consultant coordination to be considered together.

Projects may range from multiple standalone homes on a single site to townhouse and larger residential developments, with support through Resource Consent, Building Consent and subsequent design stages as required.

Industrial design begins with understanding how the building needs to work.

Storage, production, loading, vehicle movement, office space, structural spans and future flexibility can all influence the layout and architectural response.

Tisylum can work on individual industrial buildings as well as developments comprising multiple industrial units, coordinating the architectural work and relevant consultants according to the scale of the project.
