It's by Maxwell Custom Guitars, in New Zealand.

Here's a link to an article with lots more pictures. Intriguing design.

Quoting the OP just so you know which of two completely different guitars I am talking about...

I love the design aesthetic, adding sound ports in that manner. The bridge is going to have a ton of downforce on the stop, and equally upforce where the strings attach. With no bracing inside, I wonder how long before the top is a nice S-shape...
