Papamoa Primary School | Entrance Feature

A design inspired by place, landscape and the identity of a school. ⛰️

I was contacted by Jerome at Magna Concrete, who was looking for help designing an entrance feature for Papamoa Primary School. My inital idea of creating something that felt connected to its surroundings while reflecting the school itself.

The Papamoa Hills became my starting point, combined with the school’s repeating triangle motif.

The challenge was to bring the hills to life and create the illusion of depth. By varying the height and scale of the peaks, recessing the smaller hills towards a central seat, and using a darker stain on the recessed elements, the design creates a sense of foreground and background.

The repeating triangular motif adds rhythm, dimension and a connection to the school’s identity, while the natural timber and landscaping help tie the feature back to the surrounding landscape.

It was a fun project to be part of with freedom to design, taking a simple idea inspired by the local landscape and turning it into a distinctive entrance feature for the school community.

Have a project that needs a creative approach? Whether it’s an architectural feature, a commercial fit-out or a special space, I’d love to hear about it. Get in touch with Voom Interiors and Architecture to discuss your ideas.

THROUGH MY LENS | PETRA, JORDAN 🇯🇴

Some places leave you speechless, and Petra was one of them. 🧡

Weaving our way through the towering sandstone rock formations of the Siq, the anticipation builds with every turn, until the canyon opens to reveal the magnificent Treasury, Al-Khazneh.

Carved directly into the rose-red sandstone over 2,000 years ago by the Nabataeans, this extraordinary ancient city is a remarkable meeting of architecture, history and nature. A masterpiece shaped by human hands and time, hidden within the rugged desert landscape.

As someone who sees the world through both a photographer’s lens and a designer’s eye, I’m drawn to the way light, shadow, texture and scale come together to create something truly unforgettable. Petra is a place that reminds you just how incredible the world, and the people who shaped it, can be.

Through my lens, capturing not just a place, but a feeling, a memory and a moment in time. 📸

From dated to a hotel-inspired retreat ✨

This villa bathroom had been renovated a number of years ago by the previous owners. The new owners wanted something more sophisticated, a space that feels like a hotel retreat and will stand the test of time.

The design details:

🤍 Carrara marble with warm golden veining brings elegance and warmth to the space

🤍 Large-format tiles flank the walls, creating a sense of openness and drawing your eye to the bath beyond

🤍 A feature bath. The same tile was carefully cut and laid in a herringbone pattern to frame the bath and add a beautiful layer of detail

🤍 A matching shower niche carries the design through for a cohesive, considered finish

🤍 Dark grey large-format floor tiles ground the space, balancing the lighter marble and warm gold tones

The Acropolis, Athens 🏛️

Through my travels, photography allowed me to capture memories, places and moments I may never have experienced — discovering places I’d never seen, and sometimes only heard about. It opened my eyes to different cultures, perspectives and ways of seeing the world.

Standing on the Acropolis, my love of architecture grew, reminding me that great design starts with understanding its history.

Photography taught me to look closely at spaces, shapes, light and perspective. Today, as an interior and architectural designer, I find myself looking at the world through that same lens — always curious about how places make us feel and how thoughtful design can shape our experiences.

Good design doesn't throw history away. It learns from it. 🤍

Country Cottage - Brought to life 🥰

Every spatial designer dreams of a project like this — a heritage cottage with an abundance of character, and the freedom to reinterpret it alongside the owners.

A relatively small, cramped farmhouse is now spacious and inviting — reimagined around an open-plan kitchen, dining and living space that makes the most of the river views beyond.

Drawing on the owners' love of Australian Queenslander-style homes, the design embraces wraparound verandas and connection to the landscape, while the fabulous native timber and generous ceiling heights that first won them over now take centre stage.

A new entrance sets the tone for the whole home, with a round window softening the harder angles of the wall and roofline and bringing in natural light — it's become one of the home's quiet signature features.

Lateral, space-saving thinking runs throughout — proof that a small footprint doesn't mean small potential.

Always love bringing character back into older homes — feel free to reach out if you're planning something similar.

Country Cottage ❤️

Before photographs

The owners fell in love with this property the moment they saw it — viewed from across the river.

The original farmhouse was all small, cramped rooms with no welcoming entrance — but it had something special to work with: fabulous native timber and beautiful ceiling heights.

Keen cooks and entertainers, they dreamed of an open-plan kitchen, dining and living space that made the most of the river views beyond — drawing on their love of Australian Queenslander-style homes with wraparound verandas. An extra bathroom, a large wardrobe and a mudroom rounded out the brief.

A lot of potential, waiting to be unlocked.

Central Hutt City Veterinary Clinic — six months on 🐾

Grateful doesn’t cover it. Getting to design a hospital for our most loved companions was genuinely fulfilling — and seeing it thriving six months in makes it even more so.

Biophilic design runs through the whole space: natural light, tactile finishes, a pebble-like floor that nods to the nearby river. Distinct zones help staff move intuitively between public, private and sterile areas.

From client through to consultants and builders, this was a true collaboration — and it’s become a genuine asset to the Waterloo community.

Always excited for more commercial projects like this one — feel free to reach out if you’re planning something.

From 1960s bones to a clinic built for now. 🐾

Brief: bring a 1960s building into the present, without losing its warmth. Structural reinforcements, durable materials that can handle even the most enthusiastic clawing patients — form meets function, top to bottom.

Central Hutt City Veterinary Clinic

The Concept (before photos + floorplan + concept drawings)🐾

Before a single wall goes up, it's solved on paper.

This fit-out breathed new life into a tired 1960s building in Waterloo village, in the heart of Lower Hutt — the brief was as much about people and animals as it was about square metres. A welcoming reception and waiting area, four consult rooms each with their own entry and exit to the treatment rooms, and a large treatment room with dental zone and pharmacy, adjoining a separate surgery with a pass-through sterile cabinet.

A functional corridor threads it all together — laboratory, feeding stations, X-ray, dog ward (with its own outdoor area), cat ward, exotic ward — right through to office, staffroom, laundry and storage at the rear.

Every zone was planned around one question: how do staff move intuitively between public, private, clinical and sterile spaces — while keeping it calm and accessible for the animals and people who need it?
