Looking for a Design and Build Solution for your next project?We believe in the importance of engaging an integrative design team as early in the design process as possible. This initial team should include an architectural designer and builder and, where appropriate, an engineer and suppliers too. This means that all elements of sustainability and energy-efficiency can be considered and planned for as part of this holistic approach.
We are proud to offer a design and build service with our in-house Architectural Designer who will work with you from the concept design stage right through to completion. Our Designer, Bel, is a Registered Architectural Designer LBP and Certified Passive House Designer meaning that energy-efficient design is forefront when designing your home.

Trá Dubh means black sand and is a fitting name for our newest project, which looks out over Ruapuke Beach near Raglan. This two-bedroom bach will be a getaway for a busy family. It is built to maximise sea views and the outlook over native bush, as well as being a comfortable and healthy home by aiming for Passive House Classic certification. This home has been designed by our in-house Architectural and Passive House designer Belen Aseguinolaza.

![]() Myles Henaghan"The best decision of the whole project was to work with Toby and the Craft team. From day one he demonstrated an eye for detail, high standards and an 'anything is possible' attitude. A lasting impression we have is one of trust and partnership. On numerous occasions, he raised challenges, presented solutions and always listened to our point of view. Craft Homes - they know what they're doing and have a ferocious work ethic!" |
