Cielo Design Studio are experts at crafting high quality spaces and objects for indoor and outdoor environments on a wide range of scales. Our project experience varies in complexity and diversity, from residential and product design, to commercial, education and public realm projects.

We have established an insightful foundation of practice, proving design has no boundaries. We are committed to a sustainable approach to life, to balance the evolution between what is added against what is taken away.

Cielo are highly considerate designers when selecting materials, the methods of construction ensuring minimal energy and resource dependency. We continue to explore new and inventive ways to achieve a “touching the ground lightly” approach through design, in an effort to better serve future generations.

Cielo are fascinated by the evolution of space, intervention and time, and inspired by the myriad of ways us as humans use and inhabit space.  We aim to produce honest functional designs for human scale objects and environments that explore new and inventive ways in which space is constructed, experienced and preserved.

Cielo can provide design services for projects throughout New Zealand, Australia and abroad. Our services extend from concept level through to construction. Please feel free to contact us to request a scope of services and design process document, or for more information on any of the projects that are detailed on our website.

Director Pascalle Drever has been working in Design and Architecture for over 20 years.  

She has designed and project-managed a considerable number of private and public projects throughout Australia, New Zealand, and beyond.  After completing Design and Architecture studies in Auckland, New Zealand in 2000, she moved to Melbourne, Australia to work more extensively in Landscape Architecture, Architecture and Interior Design. After 20 years she is now back in New Zealand, working locally and internationally.

She has particular experience in landscape designing for education projects at all age levels from Early Learning environments through to University projects. In the residential realm she has extensive experience in designing sustainable, smart and highly functional spaces which adapt to changing needs over time and greatly increase the value of the home. Having skills in both architecture and landscape architecture provides a more cohesive design approach to all of her projects. This is especially important as we continue to transition into higher density living environments and space becomes more limited.

As a designer, Pascalle is committed to achieving excellence in all aspects of design practice, whilst at all times recognising the fundamental value of social, environmental and economic sustainability.  She is committed to providing a design service that meets all project objectives for both indoor and outdoor spaces with meaningful intelligent design outcomes.
