Black Pine Architects | Healthy Living

This is a place for people who care deeply about what they create.

Not just how it looks, but how it lives – now, and for generations to come.

Building a legacy

We believe a building is more than a project — it can be a legacy. But that kind of thinking takes patience, intention, and heart. And it means asking bigger questions:

How will this place care for people?
How does it connect with the land?
How can it give more than it takes?

The answers will shape everything, from the materials in the walls to the sunlight in the room.

The design challenge

Architectural projects are once-in-a-lifetime opportunities. Whether you’re designing a dream home, an epic rebuild, or a community space, you only get one shot. (No pressure, right…)

Getting the best outcome means being open to honest conversations and bold ways of doing things. It means having courage and holding onto what really matters — especially when things get complex.

Design can be demanding. But it’s also inspiring, creative, and joyful. And it’s worth it.

What we do

It’s your project, your vision, your story. Our job is to help bring it all together — and we promise to give you every advantage we have.

Our team of qualified architects and designers has led residential, commercial and community projects across Aotearoa New Zealand since 2012. We’re proudly Passivhaus Certified Architects, B Corp certified, and guided by the principles of the Living Building Challenge. We’ve also won some awards, and we’re proud of those too.

Black Pine is 13 years into its journey but we’re just getting started. Our ambition is to become a 100 year old company that leaves a positive legacy for future generations.
