Studio/LWA 'Architecture works well when it makes life better, it can bring comfort, ease and joy into your life' It was a transformative experience.

DIRECTOR

“I was nine when we moved from a little bungalow into the new house my parents had commissioned from an Architect. It felt like the world opened up to me. The sun came flooding in, the house opened up to a great view. The house centred around the kitchen and family room, and the spaces flowed around them. It was full of social spaces, full of friends and fam

ily. That is why I became an Architect, and that is what I am interested in. Architecture works well when it makes life better; it can bring comfort, ease, and joy into your life.”

Day’s end in Nelson. Did some things, saw some things and was lucky enough to experience some lovely places today. Shout out to clients who build in exceptional places, and the architects who take up the challenge!

Smaller - better!

There's a reason that the rumpus room, media room, master suites and multiple guest bedrooms of a decade ago are getting rarer.

"It's just our house." Architect Lisa Webb of Studio LWA wasn’t going to enter her own house in the NZIA awards this year, because it didn't feel like an award-winning house.

Happy to have the cameo in the latest and (best yet?) issue of Here . Especially emotional to see Ron and Margaret’s house. It is there, amongst the pots, paintings and s**g pile carpet, that I decided to become an architect. 💛 to my first mentor.
