ABOUT

Seear-Budd Ross is a design-focused architecture and interiors studio based in New Zealand.

Established in 2019 and led by Thomas Seear-Budd and James Ross we work on a range of project types including private residences and renovations, hospitality and retail offerings, and bespoke interior and furniture design.

Approaching each project by defining the key spatial sequences and sensorial qualities, we embrace existing conditions and draw out opportunities offered by our clients’ briefs. We strive to deliver timeless, serene spaces that live and age with their users, balancing beauty and functionality. Bringing together a restrained, minimal touch and a tactile, pure material palette, we craft atmospherically rich spaces with unassuming elegance.
