The Leigh House, Auckland

Windowmakers have shared a long-standing relationship with The House Company, having worked together to deliver quality results on many projects over the years.

At Windowmakers, we prioritise partnership and collaboration between ourselves, the building company, main contractors, and the builder's client. We ensure a cooperative approach is taken to organise, plan, and design— involving all parties to get the perfect outcome for the client. The Leigh House project by The House Company is a spectacular example of how our collaborative approach results in a project that is "just right" — exceeding all expectations. 

Key elements of the home's impressive design include custom-made cedar shutters and clerestory windows. To complement these design features, our range of APL Architectural Series joinery was chosen for the job— high-performance windows and doors with clean surfaces, continuous sightlines, and square-edged forms to provide outstanding aesthetic appeal.

Capturing The Sun, Whitford

Completed in 2018 — an impressive family renovation project, designed by the homeowner's daughter at RTA Studio with the purpose of her upcoming wedding and built by the team at Precision Construction. 

The house is located on a spectacular coastal site in Whitford, with impressive views of the Hauraki Gulf— the architect emphasised that the original home suffered from numerous poorly-planned additions which lead to a home that was disconnected from its context. Accordingly, the home's grand views remained at the forefront of the renovation process to be maximised on her wedding day.

A large component of the renovation project involved opening-up facades and replacing them with impressive window and door glazing that frames the view, provides a more cohesive design, and brings the outdoors in. The sliding doors that wrap around the living room open to accentuate indoor-outdoor living and provide convenient access to the outside — perfect for people circulation on the wedding day.

Cathedral Ceilings, Remuera

A stunning design that provides both sanctuary and light, a new-build family home that has been skilfully designed to entail a spine-like passage, courtyards, and slipping pavilions. 


The charming Remuera new build was designed by RTA Studio and built by the team at Ninety45— and deservingly, received the 2021 NZIA Auckland Architecture Award (Housing Category). 

The story of the home and its design and construction begins with the site. The family brought the Remuera site, undecided upon what they would be doing with the house originally located on the site. When it was decided the original house was to be demolished, design and construction were underway. The design and plan of the new build involved a series of spilt levels that incorporates interconnected pavilions, whereby the space in between is craftily used as sun-capturing courtyards— setting the benchmark for planning homes around the peculiarities of suburban Auckland sections. 


Perhaps one of the most striking elements of the home's style and design is the contrasting black-and-white colour scheme with jarring board and batten cladding, connected by a timber-lined corridor. Playful complementing is incorporated throughout the home, including our Metro Series joinery range in Matt Black that gives clean lines and flush sills for a pared-back look. Other notes include the precision of the concealed garage door, the bifold shutter that hermetically seals the house, and ingenious pool fencing.

With sustainability and accessibility front of mind, this home enhances life for its occupants in their golden years.


One of the most satisfying outcomes of a project for any architect is a happy client, and there’s no better testament to that than when they return to ask for another home. Such was the case for co-director of Strachan Group Architects (SGA) Pat de Pont when designing this dwelling in the Tāmaki Makaurau/ Auckland suburb of Hobsonville.

Pat’s clients have owned their property for 25 years, and he originally designed the building adjacent to this site, where they lived and worked. However, as the couple moved into retirement, they were keen to create a new, future-proofed base that afforded them greater accessibility, liveability and sustainability in the next stage of their lives.


Their plot of land is L-shaped, so the plan carved off the existing backyard for the new build, though retaining green space was integral to the avid gardeners’ brief. “It was important to locate the home in a way that created pockets of garden,” says architectural graduate Mikyla Greaney, who worked alongside Pat on the project. “The clients had a clear idea of what they wanted, which became a nice marriage between the built elements we designed and the planting plan created by SGLA [Strachan Group Landscape Architects].”

Windowmakers have always been my supplier of choice; being an APL supplier— it's a great profile. It is fantastic to be able to take customers through their design centre to see all the options. Great product, great service and great people. Easy process.

Ryan Thomas - Rodney Residential

Ninety45 has used Windowmakers on various high value and complex projects over the years. Windowmakers are very knowledgeable and provide quoting in a timely manner. The product is always delivered on time with any delays well communicated and any problems are dealt with head on— which is all we can ask of our suppliers. Showroom is awesome, I highly recommend! 

Scott Thrupp - Ninety45

Jerry and G did a great job completing the glass replacement, door adjustments, and maintenance on Rakino Island. 

It is no easy feat carrying large glass on a water taxi as well as having the time constraint of the water taxi— having to fit in all the required work, yet they did an awesome job. They were a pleasure to deal with.
