INFO@G-A.CO.NZ
Glamuzina Architects is an Auckland based practice established in 2014. We strive to produce architecture that is crafted, contextual and clever. Rather than seeking a particular outcome we value a design process that is rigorous and collaborative.
When designing we look to the context of a project beyond just its immediate physical location to the social, political, historical and economic conditions of place. This results in architecture that is uniquely tailored to the context it sits within.
We work on many different types of projects across a range of scales; from small interiors to large public buildings. Regardless of a project's budget we always prefer to work smart, using a creative mix of materials, light and volume in preference to elaborate finishes or complex detailing.
Our designs have been recognised for their excellence and innovation, winning many national and local awards including a New Zealand Architecture Award and Here Magazine Award for Casper's House in 2022.
