Sitting atop the cliffs in Northcote Point is a kitchen with a hue to rival the sunset.
Downsizing from a family house, this Northcote Point couple desired the creation of a forever home, something uniquely theirs – featuring a beautiful, functional kitchen with a high-quality finish.
The existing home and surroundings were important, and the design of the kitchen needed to seamlessly blend into its surroundings. Pantry space was a big consideration, as the current one was not fit for purpose.
“We didn’t just want a functional kitchen, we wanted a beautiful one too, with a key design feature or something interesting that would stand out.”
A large feather artwork featured in the living space called ‘A Sacred Place’ by Alexis Neal became the inspiration for the stone selected for the kitchen. Designer Marianne had just seen a new stone from Cosentino and felt it perfectly complemented the artwork.
“Everything was then designed and built around the Dekton Reverie benchtop – Marianne’s expertise and professional opinion made a huge difference.”
This sunset-hued kitchen features a striking ZOMODO Rio Bronze sink and tap, picked to integrate flawlessly with the Dekton Reverie benchtop and create warmth as it overlooks the water of Waitematā Habour.
Multiple Space Step plinth solutions make it easy to reach higher cupboards while creating additional storage. The pantry is fully lined with Original Oak Melamine that elevates the space and adds to the colour palette, with functionality being delivered in the form of top shelves, lower pullout drawers and a utility shelf with charging points.
