A complete approach to creating exceptional homes, in Christchurch.
One Millimetre creates exceptional homes in Christchurch — architecture, engineering, materials and craftsmanship under one team. We take a home from the first concept through consent and construction to handover — and we stay involved afterwards.
We think luxury is not how much material you use. It is that the things most projects leave until the day — the hidden doors, the wall panelling, the skirting junctions, the socket positions, the temperature of the light, the weight of a handle — were decided on purpose, and drawn before anyone picked up a tool.
The house is resolved in 3D before work starts on site, so decisions get made on a screen rather than against a deadline.
The people who design the house work alongside the trades who build it, from the same office.
Millimetric is our own line — tapware, decking, tiles, fencing and hardware, made for the projects they go into.
We are still here for maintenance and aftercare after you move in.
Selected work
We model the house in 3D before construction starts — materials, lighting and junctions worked through while they are still easy to change. What you see here are renders of real, in-progress and completed designs.
How we work
At One Millimetre, design and construction are not separate processes. They are part of one considered approach — bringing architecture, materials, craftsmanship and construction together under one team.
From the first lines on a drawing to the final details on site, every decision is considered, every element has its place, and every stage is held to the same standard.
Considered from the beginning. Delivered down to the last detail.
From architectural design and consenting to construction and handover, we take responsibility for the entire journey. One team, one vision, one consistent standard — from concept to completion.

Whether it is a complete transformation or a carefully considered upgrade, we bring the same level of design thinking, material selection and craftsmanship to every renovation.

Bespoke joinery, integrated detailing, concealed doors and carefully selected finishes. Every interior is designed as a complete composition, where materials, proportions and craftsmanship work together seamlessly.

Craftsmanship
Most of the homes we build get a fully custom interior — hidden doors that read as wall until they open, panelling drawn room by room, joinery made for the space it sits in. Anyone can order a good door. Designing a wall so the door disappears into it is a different discipline, and it works best when the same people draw it and build it.
Our name is not a tolerance. It is a habit — looking closer than the job strictly requires, and deciding things on purpose rather than on site. Apart from the electrical and plumbing, which belong with licensed specialists, most of what you can see in one of our homes is built by our own team. But the control does not come from who holds the tools. It comes from having drawn the detail first, and checking it afterwards.
Millimetric · our own product line
Millimetric is our own line — tapware, decking, tiles, fencing, hardware. Because it is ours, a detail can be specified rather than settled for: decking with hidden fasteners and nothing on the surface to catch or lift, tiles chosen by slip rating room by room, tapware produced for the project it belongs to.
