Kitchen Design
We know kitchens - we’ve designed a lot of them and won some awards along the way. The kitchen is the hub of the home and a great place to start when you’re designing the entire interior. Spatial planning is a key consideration for a successful kitchen design.
We will design a beautiful, functional kitchen where the layout makes the best use of the available space and the design works with the rest of your house.
Let us help you edit the overwhelming number of choices and come up with a kitchen design that fits your family, your style and your budget. We’ll help you save time, stress and money along the way.
If you would like to learn a little more about the design process, have a look at this blog post where the process is explained in a bit more detail with photos showing specialised storage elements and how we changed the layout in a recent kitchen renovation to utilise the space in the best way possible.

Bathroom Design
The second hardest working room in your home is the bathroom (following the kitchen, of course). A bathroom should be a practical space when preparing for the day and a sanctuary to escape to at the end of a long day. And, like the kitchen, the bathroom needs detailed design consideration and space planning.
We can help you to select the best fittings for your particular needs, style and budget. With our expert knowledge of different plumbing and surface material finishes, the end result will be a bathroom that you love.
Furniture & styling
We can source some unique and beautiful furniture and styling items for your home which can really make the difference to your finished project - it’s the icing on the cake!
We can also design and source custom furniture pieces, and have them built to fit your space. Below are just some of the pieces we have designed and installed for our clients.
entertainment units
window seats
built in dining seating
book shelving
built in office desks
custom headboards
ottomans
If you’d like to update your furniture, have custom furniture made for your space or simply want to update your cushions and artwork we can help you find some unique pieces to provide the finishing touches to your project.
Window treatments
Knowing the right window treatments to select for each room can be a bit confusing. There are a lot of options and we can help you to choose the right treatments for each space.
Custom curtains, made from gorgeous fabrics, help create a sense of style in any room. They add warmth, texture and movement, as well as practical benefits such as filtering sunlight, providing privacy, and adding a layer of insulation.
The choice of curtain style is very important and very much room and home dependent. We can help you through the choices to ensure you have the very best finished product.
We have teamed with a top curtain workroom and have access to many stunning and up-to-date fabric ranges from New Zealand’s leading fabric houses.
Another very popular and stylish option is the plantation shutter. They look particularly great from the outside as well which makes them a great choice for bungalows and villas.
We work with some very experienced suppliers and installers who can advise the correct shutters to choose depending on the type of windows that you have.
Interior & exterior colour schemes
The colour palette is an important design decision to make when building or renovating your home. From exterior and interior paint colours to fabrics and finishes, the colours selected will determine how your home looks and feels.
Exterior - Paint colours, joinery colours, front doors, roof colours.
Interior - Paint colours, wallpapers, feature cladding, flooring stains.
Lighting
Great lighting can transform your space. From captivating feature lighting to functional lighting plans, we create visually stunning and functional designs. Highlight architectural elements, artwork, and decor with precision, while ensuring optimal usability through ambient and task lighting. We can help you find the perfect lighting solutions for your project.
Spatial Planning
We can cast an expert eye over your plans and make suggestions to make your spaces work better for you. The earlier we can be involved, the better!
