My Philosophy

 
I believe in discovering the beauty that exists in the everyday things and celebrating them as special. (wabi sabi) and that there is always a simple elegant solution to all design briefs

My Clients aspirations are central to all projects and it is essential that time is taken to listen to and understand these. 
My design process is fundamentally facilitative, collaborative and innovative with no preconceived architectural styles or outcomes.  It is a joint journey of discovery where options are explored and tested against the brief to determine the best solution.

Working for myself allows me to focus on my belief in a more personal approach to Architecture that reflects the unique kiwi environment, society and spirit.
Dalkie Architecture Limited is committed to design that will exceed Client expectations in terms of delight, surprise and beauty of the experience of the completed space - Holistic design which clearly expresses its intensions with integrity.
