Residential & Commercial Architecture in Christchurch & Canterbury

HMOA's Christchurch studio is led by registered architect Duval O'Neill, supported by HMOA Associate Nic Sewell. The team has built a strong reputation across both residential and commercial architecture in Christchurch and the wider Canterbury region.

For residential projects, the studio specialises in award-winning renovations of modernist and mid-century homes, new houses and heritage restoration. On the commercial side, the team has extensive experience in large-scale multi-unit apartment developments, earthquake strengthening and adaptive reuse of existing buildings – all areas where Christchurch's post-quake rebuild has created significant demand.

Whether you are a homeowner planning a renovation, a developer scoping a multi-unit project or a commercial client requiring earthquake strengthening or heritage consent work, our Christchurch architects can guide you from initial concept through to building consent and construction.
