ThermaCast™ Designs
Concrete House Designs NZ
Explore our range of concrete home designs — from efficient family homes to bespoke architectural builds. Every design is engineered for ThermaCast construction and can be adapted to your site, your lifestyle, and your budget.
Designed for Concrete
Our designs are not timber floor plans adapted for concrete — they are conceived from the outset to take advantage of what concrete construction offers. Large open spans without intermediate posts, exposed concrete feature walls, integrated thermal mass orientation, and structural forms that would be impossible in timber framing.
We work with leading architectural designers who understand concrete construction. Whether you choose one of our proven designs or bring your own architect, our team ensures the ThermaCast system is optimised for your home.
Design Categories
Browse by home type to find a starting point for your build.
Single-Level Family Homes
Open-plan living with three to four bedrooms, designed for flat to gently sloping sites. These designs maximise the thermal mass benefits of ThermaCast with north-facing living areas and generous glazing.
Two-Storey Executive Homes
Larger homes with upstairs bedrooms and ground-floor living. The concrete lower level provides excellent acoustic separation from the sleeping areas above. Suits urban and semi-rural sites.
Architectural Builds
Bespoke designs that push the boundaries of concrete construction — cantilevered forms, curved walls, double-height spaces, and large glass panels. ThermaCast's in-situ method makes complex geometry achievable.
Compact & Retirement Homes
Efficient single-level designs ideal for downsizers, retirement living, or smaller sites. Low maintenance concrete construction is particularly well suited to long-term, easy-care living.
Rural & Lifestyle Properties
Designs for rural settings that embrace the landscape — wraparound terraces, large garaging, and integration with outdoor living. Built to handle exposed sites and higher wind zones.
Multi-Unit & Duplex
Concrete construction is ideal for attached dwellings where fire and acoustic separation are critical. ThermaCast party walls exceed the Building Code requirements for inter-tenancy separation.
Bringing Your Own Design?
If you already have plans or are working with your own architect, we can assess the design for ThermaCast construction and provide a detailed quotation. Our engineering team works alongside your designer to ensure the concrete wall system integrates seamlessly with the architectural intent.
We recommend involving us early in the design process. Early collaboration ensures the design leverages the full potential of concrete construction and avoids costly redesign later.
