Origin Architecture

Rarebirds work have worked with Leigh and his team on a number of projects. We cant begin to explain what a delight they have been to work with.Leigh is both professional and friendly and communicates concisely with both ourselves and our clients.He's our first port of call for anything architectural for our projects.

Great experience working with Leigh on our house renovation project. Creative design ideas, and quality and efficient work with the engineer and the council, all while required minimal time from me. Definitely recommended!

Leigh is fantastic to deal with and I highly recommend him and the team at Origin Architecture. Leigh has an eye for detail and is all about delivering quality and the best outcomes from a design perspective. He is timely, has a great attention to detail and always listens to the clients needs. Highly recommend Origin Architecture.

I have worked with Leigh on multiple projects. He and his team are great people and they do an outstanding job. Highly recommend!

I would just like to say thanks to Leigh so much from origin for his amazing work turning our 2 bedroom 1 bathroom 65sqm bungalow into a 3 bedroom 2 bathroom 110sqm bungalow he nailed the design from the first port of call he is very friendly and has great communication from start to finish, as I’m also a builder I will be using Leigh for all my up and coming projects.

We worked on two projects together. Origin is very easy to talk to and can create an solution that fit everyone in our households needs. They are also helped us widen the range of building materials. Our building consents were issued smoothly due to their quick response and careful preparation. High recommended.

Leigh Garner was been an absolute dream to work with, and I cannot state enough how much easier and less stressful he made the process of adding a second floor to our house. From the very start, he took our vague ideas and helped frame them into clear designs that we could act on. Leigh was friendly, accessible, clear, and detailed in all communication and truly made me feel like he was invested in the success of our build. He answered all questions I had very clearly and laid out an easy to follow framework for the actions I needed to take. He simply removed the guesswork that causes anxiety when doing this kind of planning by having a clear, set, and easily understandable design and payment plan. He was instrumental in helping sort out technical hiccups, and made sure that when our building consent application was filed, it was approved with no required changes at all. He guided us through the whole process, and I am truly grateful for hard work. Leigh gave us the plans for the exact home we wanted and kept it within our budget. His contacts meant that we were able to quickly sort excellent builders as well. If you are looking for top notch architectural work with a personalised and caring touch, you can’t get better than Leigh.

Over the last 3 years my company QBS (Qualified Building Solutions Limited) has worked with Origin Architecture (Leigh) on a range of residential projects including a highly architectural & detailed new home in Grey Lynn. I have found Leigh & his team to be very professional, always available and easy to work with. Origins plans and detailing are also very tidy which makes life easy for us builders! Highly recommend Origin for all types of architectural design work.

Leigh and his team are easy to work with. I got very clear guidelines of what to expect upfront at each stage along with associated pricing, so I didn’t have to worry about that side. Throughout the process we had logical touch points to give feedback and this worked well for us. Having coke 3 different pieces of work with Origin now, I can confidently recommend them.

Leigh worked with us to develop plans to alter our existing house. We had explored options and ideas for years on our own, and were excited when Leigh came to us with a solution we both loved. He patiently collaborated with us to transform our requirements and wish list into an inspired and detailed specification. He was friendly and professional throughout and was able to put us in touch with his various network of consultants/contractors. We highly recommend Leigh at Origin Architecture!
