Practice
We design buildings, landscapes and infrastructure to enrich and connect thriving, prosperous, sustainable communities.
Our Approach
Jasmax is a multi-disciplinary architecture and design practice with studios in Aotearoa New Zealand and Australia.
Our approach is founded on combining creativity with technical expertise to tackle the complexity of development in today’s world. Our Manifesto reflects our commitment to contribute to an equitable, inclusive society through the work we do.
For 60 years, we have been at the forefront of design in the Pacific. We are trusted advisors to clients operating across public and private sectors. Challenging assumptions and exploring potential to create impactful and elegant design outcomes, our focus is on leaving a sustainable legacy in the built environment for future generations.
Our reputation for innovation is founded on our uniquely collaborative culture and our collective values. We welcome opportunities for partnership to deliver projects across the globe.
Sustainability
We are committed to navigating a pathway toward a regenerative future and see reducing lifecycle carbon emissions as the new frontier and a key challenge for our industry to address. To support the transition to net zero construction we have set industry leading targets to achieve net zero emissions across all projects by 2030 and we lead New Zealand in Green Star certification.
Indigenous Design
We are committed to uplifting and empowering Indigenous communities through our cultural engagement processes. By weaving together stories embedded in their place, we create innovative and contemporary designs authentic to the communities they serve.
