About

AW Architects is an award-winning architecture and interior design studio, established in 2013 by Registered Architect Andrew Watson. Based in Christchurch, our team works across the South Island and New Zealand, delivering projects that span residential, commercial, cultural, heritage and master planning. From compact cottages to multi-unit developments and landmark civic buildings, our work embodies a personalised response to each brief — respectful of context, environment and culture, while meeting the aspirations of every client.

Our practice is driven by the balance of creativity and technical expertise. Within our St Asaph Street studio, collaboration and curiosity underpin a body of work recognised with numerous NZIA and Best Awards. Whether revitalising heritage landmarks, shaping community facilities, or designing sustainable homes in remarkable landscapes, we approach every project with care, clarity and craft. AW Architects is a registered practice with the New Zealand Institute of Architects.
