Ken Robinson Architects was formed to provide a client focused service; aiming to produce efficient, ecologically sound buildings that are adaptive yet personal to the occupants.

This is achieved by taking full advantage of the site and the building’s volume and structure to enhance the users’ perception of space and well being.

Ken Robinson Architects is a small established firm and Ken has a reputation for providing quality cost effective architectural solutions on a wide range of projects ranging from residential buildings to multi storey developments, including an extensive work history in education work.

We believe that commitment to excellence in design and documentation combined with close working relationships with both the client and building contractors has enabled provision of building solutions that the client, the community, and the construction team can be proud of.

Ken Robinson Architects Ltd was formed in 2009 with the simple aim of providing a client focused service, creating functional, cost effective solutions that exceed our clients expectations.

While Ken Robinson Architects is a relatively new firm, Ken has a reputation for providing quality architectural solutions on a wide range of projects ranging from commercial and industrial buildings, to single homes or multi residential developments, with a particular expertise with education work that has created a long term client base throughout the Nelson Region.

Ken Robinson Architects Ltd has access to several contract support staff. Working from our Bronte Street offices in Nelson we are committed to providing best outcome in design and service by offering a cooperative approach in solving problems.

Communication is enhanced by using the latest ArchiCAD workstations that offer the opportunity of 3D computer imaging at all stages of a project, along with the ability to quickly record and modify information, enabling documentation to be prepared efficiently no matter the size of the project

Being small has the major advantage of having an experienced architect work through all stages of the planning, design, detailing and construction of a project. This ensures consistency of the design ideas throughout, and this married with technical competence at all levels, gives continuity important in ensuring an effective outcome.
