Dalgleish Architects Ltd studio is located in Whanganui on Te Ika Au Maui, the North Island of Aotearoa New Zealand. The Awa, the majestic Whanganui River, runs from the mountains to the sea. The city is located from the river mouth along the river, running inland to Upokongaro.

We work throughout the motu (nation), with many projects and relationships in the Whanganui, Taranaki, Manawatū and Hawkes Bay locales in particular.
