Professional Architectural Designers in Henderson, Auckland

 
 

Henderson sits at the heart of West Auckland, framed by the Waitākere Ranges to the west and the Waitematā Harbour to the east, with a character all its own. The area blends established family homes and leafy valley properties with a wave of new medium-density and terraced housing reshaping how the suburb grows.

For homeowners here, good home design is what turns a tight site, a tired layout or an ambitious idea into a place that genuinely works for daily life. As experienced architectural designers in Henderson, Gubb Design brings a clear, considered process to new builds, renovations and additions across the area. From character villas needing a thoughtful extension to new homes on subdivided sites, we shape spaces around how people actually want to live.

 

Services We Provide

New Home Design

We design one-off homes tailored to your site and lifestyle, balancing striking building facades with layouts that work for everyday living.

Renovations and Alterations

We reshape existing homes with extensions and reconfigurations that add space, light and value without losing character.

Consent Support

We prepare and guide building and resource consent documentation, helping your project move through council with less friction.

 

Design With Real Clarity

Great architectural design starts with understanding your site, your budget and how you want the finished home to feel. We begin with feasibility and early-stage studies, so you have real clarity on what’s possible before you commit to building. From there, our architectural design work moves through concept, developed design and the detailed documentation that keeps a build on track.

We also guide you through building and resource consent, which is often the part Henderson homeowners find most daunting. Because we design with buildability in mind, the finished drawings are practical to construct, not just nice to look at. The result is a premium outcome, strong documentation and far fewer surprises once the tools come out on site.

We also work with homeowners in nearby suburbs including Te Atatū, Sunnyvale, Glendene and Massey, along with the wider West Auckland area. Homes across these neighbourhoods range from post-war bungalows ripe for renovation to new sites ready for a modern build or a well-planned subdivision.

Because we’re based right here in Henderson on Lincoln Road, we know the local sites, the council landscape and the way the area is changing. Whether you’re planning a single extension, a brand new home or a medium-density development, you get the same architectural design expertise and clear documentation. Thoughtful residential design is closer to home than you might expect.
