Our Process
When it comes to project management and architectural planning, we’ve got it down to a fine art.
We pride ourselves on transparent communication and quality project management, so we’ll always use layman’s terms and we won’t leave a project until you’re blown away with the result.
This is what working with us looks like:
Starting with a conversation
As part of our mission to make architectural planning accessible to all New Zealanders, Gisler Architects has expanded from Te Awamutu into the Auckland region and beyond. We’ll be continuing our open-office policy, welcoming you in to share your ideas and gain insight from a team of experts.
At Gisler Architects, we love to hear about your vision for a dream home, a modern classroom, or an innovative office building. We lead by listening to you, because the first conversations allow us to connect with your goals and share your inspiration.
Our welcoming attitude to architecture has made Gisler Architects a partner-of-choice for residential, educational, and commercial projects. Come to us with your ideas and requirements, and we’ll bring our expertise and our network to show you what’s possible.
Our team of registered architects and architectural designers start putting your ideas onto paper, or in our case, crafting them into conceptual 3D designs and detailed architectural drawings. We’ll then work with you to adapt every detail until the design is perfect.
But architectural planning is not just about the designs, we’ll also map out your project from an actions perspective. This means clearly and transparently walking you through the required processes to expect at each stage of the project.
From navigating the feasibility study, to resource and building consent, and even selecting the right contractors for the job, we’ll explain every upcoming procedure so that you know exactly what to expect.
Designing your project
Guiding you through compliance
Compliance procedures such as building consent and resource consent processes can be a headache, and navigating these essential parts of the construction process can be challenging without the guidance of industry experts.
As part of Gisler Architects’ dedicated project management service, we guide clients through all procedures and act on your behalf to secure the best possible outcome for your project.
This means consulting with experts and other experts on your behalf, handling construction contracts and quality management to drive project progress whilst advocating for your needs.
With our end-to-end service, we have the combined capability to masterplan as architects, and see a project through to completion as skillful project managers.
Part of our industry expertise is knowing which tradesmen and craftsmen to engage to deliver the outcome our clients are looking for, whether you’re seeking innovative builders to construct your sustainable home, or reliable electricians to fit-out your school or office.
Gisler Architects’ clients benefit from our network of suppliers and contractors, and we’ll guide you through the process of engaging the right people for the job.
By managing your project on-site, we’ll keep you informed and updated, ensuring every detail is delivered within your timeline and your budget, to the best possible standard.
Building your masterpiece
Preparing for the future
Our work doesn’t end when the site is packed up and the tradesmen go home.
At Gisler Architects, we stand by you as your trusted advisor for all architectural planning, maintenance and potential future developments after your initial project is complete.
For educational institutions and commercial clients, we’ll continue to stand by you as your project manager. This could involve designing a long-term plan for future redevelopments, or simply supporting you with sourcing maintenance contractors or liaising with government bodies.
For homeowners, this means being your first point of contact for advice and support with your custom-built home – from minor maintenance queries to advice about further development and renovation.
This approach to client relationships has enabled Gisler Architects to build a strong, widespread network of happy clients and partners. We’re proud to deliver an impeccable client experience that is as tailored and robust as the structures we build.
