A recycled oar, something the owners had held onto for years, repurposed as the front door handle. The kind of detail that personalises a home and reflects the environment.

Enhancing the approach to the home is an entry pergola constructed in Tonka hardwood known for its strength in exposed conditions. Cedar battens add filtered light and softness against the surrounding materials.
Beyond the cedar-slatted door lies a covered walkway lined in rusticated 28mm weatherboard with extruded aluminium external corner flashings creating clean lines and aesthetic appeal.
Small details, expertly executed.

“I’ve worked with some of the best Project Managers around the world. No one comes close to Scott.”

A quote from one of our clients, and honestly, we couldn’t say it better ourselves.

Scott brings experience, care, patience and exceptional attention to detail to every project he leads. He is deeply respected by our clients, our team, and everyone who works alongside him.

Happy 7-year work anniversary, Scott. We are very lucky to have you as part of the Thorne Group team.

A quick meeting photo with Scott… taken slightly against his will.

Scott plays a big role keeping our projects moving and making sure everything stays on track — he just prefers doing it behind the scenes rather than appearing on Instagram.

This project is a great example of what happens when a site is used well.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Behind these construction shots is a huge amount of planning and problem-solving. The engineering is bordering on commercial in complexity, but it has allowed the home to really maximise the site and make the most of every part of it.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What also makes this home special is that it has been designed to be fully wheelchair accessible throughout, without losing the feeling of a considered, high-quality architectural build. It is a home designed to work beautifully now and well into the future.

When landscaping isn’t an afterthought.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
On this project, landscaping and planting was considered right from the outset.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Some of the trees being planted are up to 30 years old and the landscaping has been carefully scheduled around the construction programme - not just added on at the end.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The clients want to ensure everything is finished when they move in, so they can enjoy their new home without work still going on around them. .nz

A few photos of some of the crew on site.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It’s a great mix of wisdom and experience combined with young energy. Craig trained as a furniture maker in London, working for the Fortnum & Mason family and brings a level of exceptional craftsmanship to the team. The younger guys bring passion and an eagerness to develop their skills along with energy that helps keep everything moving.

The team are looking forward to starting this major renovation designed by transforming a 1990s Mount Maunganui home.

Consisting of three storeys and adjoining the neighbouring property by a shared firewall, this project requires detailed planning from day one. In built-up areas like this consideration of access, protection of adjacent homes and sequencing is essential.

Site revisit at this compact Mount site. Set on just 298m², the design makes the most of every metre, delivering close to 300m² of smart, well-planned living over two levels. The wrap-around balcony is a standout, with beautifully detailed screens that add privacy, provide shelter from the elements and ability to be used year-round.
