Turns out, I have a method to my madness 💁🏼‍♀️

We start with the big picture, then work through concepts, pricing, selections, documentation and finally, site.

It keeps the project moving and means decisions happen when they actually need to.

The lead-up to summer always makes me think of this kitchen, and of our clients enjoying this beautiful space exactly as it was designed to be. ☀️

Set in Maraetai, there’s something about the beachside location, airy palette and connection to the outdoors that makes it feel made for summer. Doors open, friends and family gathered around the island, and plenty of space for effortless entertaining.

This gorgeous kitchen also took home the 2024 NKBA Outstanding Kitchen Renovation of the Year - swipe to see why. 🤍

Introducing Point View.

Perched on the hills of East Tāmaki Heights, this renovation began with a simple brief: create a kitchen that felt fresh, contemporary, and worked effortlessly for the way our clients live today.

While the footprint remained the same, every design decision was carefully considered to maximise functionality and storage. Working within the existing services challenged us to think creatively, refining the layout to improve functionality without compromising the overall vision.

The result is a kitchen where bold Ankara stone becomes the focal point, grounded by rich woodgrain and softened with warm off-white hues. A palette that feels timeless, balanced, and designed to age beautifully.

A humble transformation that bought a dates and tired 2000’s kitchen into 2026 🙌🏻

Everyone loves a good before and after. But what about the stories in between?

When I first met the client, she’d already been through the design process once before. The concept had squared everything off, and in doing that, she felt she was going to lose what made the space special in the first place.

So we reworked it. Looked at how the space actually wanted to function, brought the curves and angles back into focus, and let the architecture lead the decisions. Nothing overcomplicated, just considered choices, texture where it mattered, and details that felt like they belonged.

This is one of those transformations that doesn’t scream for attention, but feels completely different to live in.

A soft moment in pink.

While the palette leans mostly into greys and whites, we couldn’t resist weaving in a little colour through the Foxy vanity and Wafer wall. Subtle, considered, and just enough to lift the space.

Designed to feel calm, feminine, and quietly playful within this 60s reno.

A fun pair of bathrooms for a gorgeous Ponsonby apartment.

When the client wanted something a little bit different, we didn’t hesitate. A perfect mix of Playful and a little unexpected. Proof that bathrooms don’t have to play it safe to feel considered.

Cheers to the long weekend 🥂

Daylight saving is out, moody evenings are in… and suddenly staying home feels like the better plan.

Low lighting, something strong in your glass, and a bar that’s doing most of the heavy lifting. Entertaining if you feel like it, disappearing into your own little corner if you don’t.

Cozy, indulgent, and very hard to leave.

This kitchen is all about what’s happening beneath the surface.

Every storage decision has been carefully resolved to support how the space is actually used, from integrated solutions through to the finer joinery detailing and hidden breakfast nook. The goal was to create something that feels calm and effortless, while working incredibly hard behind the scenes.

A considered layout, refined material palette, and cabinetry that does more than just look good. It’s designed to carry the weight of everyday living without ever feeling overworked.

A glimpse into something that’s been quietly evolving in the background.

Soft stone, deep contrast, and a moment of stillness framed by nature.
A space designed to indulge, a space to pause, and a space to reset.

Before It Begins | Vol. 1
Do I actually need a designer?

I’m going to go with yes… but I may be a little biased 🤭

It’s rarely about whether you need a designer at all, and more about understanding what kind of support will actually make your project work.

Read the first blog in the Before It Begins series to find out what that looks like.
