DIRECTOR

JEREMY CROOKS

Hailing from a farm amongst the Hills of Dacre/Mabel Bush, Southland, I headed to the Southern Lakes region where I commenced and completed my apprenticeship over 20 years ago building architectural bespoke homes.

 

Following this I moved to Australia to pursue sporting contracts.  During my time there, 11 years in total, I amassed a wealth of knowledge, first working on the construction of luxury super yachts, then moving between constructing large luxury ocean front and inner city homes in both Sydney and later Melbourne, and construction of inner city mid and high rise residential and commercial towers.

 

Back home in New Zealand, I have constructed homes throughout Canterbury, Otago and Southland, some of which have featured in home design magazines and gained awards in the New Zealand Master Builders House of the Year.

 

I am now focusing and placing more of an emphasis on sustainable smart design and complete build systems that enhance not only the building but the well-being of the individuals that reside and occupy the home now and well into the future.

 

It’s through this experience and knowledge I gained during these years and continue to gain, I believe I can help you achieve your ambition of producing an exceptionally designed and crafted home.
