What Rogan Nash Architects does

Rogan Nash Architects is a privately held boutique architecture and interior design practice headquartered in Grey Lynn, Auckland, New Zealand. Founded in 2012 by Directors Eva Nash and Kate Rogan — both NZ registered architects and Fellows of the New Zealand Institute of Architects — the firm delivers bespoke residential architecture alongside select boutique commercial and hospitality work for affluent homeowners across Auckland and regional New Zealand, including Waiheke Island, Matakana, Tasman District, Coromandel, Rotorua Lakes District, Port Waikato, and Queenstown.

The firm's core offering spans four integrated service lines: bespoke new build houses, heritage villa and bungalow renovations and additions, full-scope interior design (including cabinetry, kitchens, materials, pools, and outdoor elements), and select boutique commercial and hospitality projects. The distinguishing operational model is the concurrent development of architecture and interior design within a single studio, intended to eliminate translation loss between design intent and construction execution. Technology is limited to implied standard industry tools; no proprietary platforms or AI/ML capabilities are disclosed. The practice has no patents, subsidiaries, or external investment, and operates as a founder-led private limited company with two Directors and a small support team implied by the 1-10 employee band.

The business model is straightforward professional services: revenue is generated through project-specific fees tied to scope, complexity, and site conditions. Go-to-market is relationship-led, relying on word-of-mouth referrals, an editorial-led marketing approach anchored by the rogannash.com portfolio site and active Instagram, regular features in New Zealand architecture and interior design publications (HOME Magazine, Homestyle, NZ House and Garden, HERE Magazine, Stuff.co.nz), and sustained participation in NZIA, BEST, Interior Awards, TIDA, and the World Architecture Festival award programmes. Pricing is bespoke and not publicly disclosed; prospective clients are routed via website contact form, phone, or email directly to the Directors.

Core offering

Rogan Nash Architects is a boutique architecture and interior design practice that delivers fully integrated residential design services from initial concept through to construction observation. The studio specialises in bespoke new build houses, heritage villa and bungalow renovations and additions, and integrated interior design (including kitchens, cabinetry, pool and pool house design, and outdoor fireplaces) for affluent homeowners across Auckland and regional New Zealand, with a small number of boutique commercial and hospitality projects. All client work is led personally by the two founding Directors, Eva Nash and Kate Rogan, with architecture and interior design developed concurrently under one roof to prevent design intent from being diluted between disciplines.

Product overview

Rogan Nash Architects is an award-winning residential architecture and interiors practice offering a fully integrated service from concept through to construction. The core offering spans four main service areas: New Build Houses (bespoke residential new builds across Auckland and beyond), Heritage Villa and Bungalow Renovations (restoration and extension of character homes), Interior Design Services (kitchens, cabinetry, finishes, and spatial design integrated with architecture), and select Boutique Commercial and Hospitality Projects. All services are delivered by Directors Eva Nash and Kate Rogan, both NZ registered architects (NZRAB) and Fellows of the New Zealand Institute of Architects (FNZIA), with a combined fifty years of experience.
