Eat Streat designed by Esse Architects located in Rotorua, Waikato. Shaping spaces through thoughtful design

Shaping spaces through thoughtful design

“We believe that Architecture is about the essence of things in making beautiful spaces that exude character and atmosphere – enhancing the intangible.”

At Esse Architects, thoughtful design is at the heart of everything we do. We create architecture that balances function and form, designing buildings that work as beautifully as they look.

Our approach is grounded in collaboration, technical precision, and a clear understanding of how spaces shape experience. From large-scale commercial developments to bespoke residential projects, we partner with clients to deliver enduring architecture that stands the test of time.

Every project begins with listening, to people, to purpose, and to place. The result is design that’s intelligent, restrained, and deeply considered, reflecting both the client’s vision and the context it inhabits.
