Taking on two new projects from spring 2027
Small buildings, drawn slowly and built well
Okra Morrow Architects designs extensions, small civic buildings, reused industrial sheds and timber housing. We are a team of nine, and the architect who draws your building is the one who walks the site with the contractor.

Selected projects
Six buildings, from a back extension to a boathouse
Each project has its numbers next to it: floor area, measured energy use, time on site and cost per square metre. We publish them because clients ask, and because they keep us honest.
Testimonials
What clients say about working with us
“They told us honestly that our first idea would not get planning, and then showed us a better one. The extension cost what they said it would, which still surprises our friends.”
Dev RamanHomeowner, rear extension“As a public client we need fixed fees and paperwork that survives an audit. We got both, plus a building the town is proud of.”
Marguerite HolmCapital projects manager, district council“Our hall was a damp shell. They worked out which walls could stay, which could be repaired, and how to heat it for less than we spent on the old boiler.”

Services
From the first site visit to the last snag
Clear stages with fixed fees, so you know what each step costs before we start. Most clients begin with a feasibility study and decide from there.
Feasibility study
A measured look at your site, brief and budget before you commit. We test two or three options, check planning risks and give you a realistic cost range.
From $4,500
Full design service
Everything from concept design to completion: drawings, specifications, tendering, and fortnightly site inspections until the building is handed over.
10–13% of build
Planning and heritage
Planning and listed building applications, pre-application meetings, heritage statements and neighbour consultation for sensitive or protected sites.
From $6,800
Interiors and joinery
Kitchens, built-in joinery, lighting and finishes, designed alongside the architecture so the shelves, windows and light switches all line up.
From $85/m²
