Based in Tauranga, Jon McAlpine Architecture specialises in residential design across homes, beachfront residences, and rural residences tailored to each client.

A team of seven, working from Mount Maunganui, Bay of Plenty. We start every project on the land — reading the light, the wind and the fall of the ground before a single line is drawn.
Our design philosophy is grounded in simplicity and clarity of form. By removing unnecessary elements, the true essence of a building is revealed, resulting in a more refined architectural response.
Central to this is creating seamless connections between spaces, carefully considered around how clients live and work.
