MISSION

At Forrest Architects

We aim to provide high-quality architectural services that exceed your expectations. We believe in creating innovative designs that are both functional and beautiful.

Our Story

First established in 2017 in Takapuna, Forrest started out as an LBP design firm heavily focused in residential design. To Forrest, storytelling is about understanding the wider emotional connection to the world enabling the key to good designs.

Our Philosophy

With a strong view of architecture as a bridge between the private and public spheres, we seek to seamlessly integrate nature with the embrace of its organic qualities.

PEOPLE

Forrest Chen

Director | Registered Architect



As the founder of Forrest Architects, I look back on this journey with immense pride and gratitude. Since establishing the practice in 2017 in Takapuna, Auckland, my vision has remained clear: to design architecture that is not only functional, but profoundly personal.


Each project is an opportunity to create spaces that reflect the unique stories, aspirations, and lifestyles of our clients, while embracing the natural context that surrounds them. For me, architecture is not just about buildings, but about crafting experiences that feel grounded, intentional, and enduring.
