In this episode of the Elevate Podcast, host Ryan Castle talks with architect Natasha Markham and builder Ross Faulkner. Natasha Markham is a registered architect, urban designer, and founder of MAUD (Markham Architecture + Urban Design). The Auckland-based practice is a boutique studio specialising in well-crafted residential and commercial architecture and offers urban design services to projects at all scales. Ross Faulkner is the Director of Faulkner Construction, a family-owned and operated construction company that has been building dream homes for over 35 years.
They discuss their experiences in the construction industry, including a collaborative project on Natasha's own home. Together, they won the regional Supreme Renovation Over $1.5 million award at House of the Year for a Victorian villa in Freemans Bay. They worked together to transform it into a contemporary family home while preserving its heritage charm. The renovation involved restoring original features, incorporating sustainable practices, and creating a functional layout that caters to the needs of a modern family.
The conversation covers the importance of open dialogue in design and construction, and the role of sustainability in their work. Natasha and Ross also share their joy at receiving recognition for their project, share advice for those starting their construction journey and how listeners can connect with them.
