Her passion for design and eye for detail means
every kitchen by designer Lara Farmilo is a winner
Ever since her school days, Lara Farmilo
knew she had a passion for art and design.
“Early on, I decided the best way to
carry this forward into the real world was
through interior design – so I undertook
and completed a two year design diploma.”
From there Farmilo went on directly to
work for Poggenpohl in Parnell, Auckland.
“The company was a perfect fit for me
all round. I love the international flavour
of Poggenpohl kitchens and that they
reflect the latest and best options available
– from technology to finishes to flexibility.
“I’ve been designing there for over 14
years now and over that time have seen
kitchens transformed from a secondary
space to being the centre of attention.”
On working with her clients, Farmilo
says while she enjoys fulfilling the needs of
those with a specific vision, she loves being
given a blank canvas to work from as well.
“One of the best things about this job
is surprising our clients with something far
better than they could have imagined,” she
says. “For example, I recently undertook a
complete revamp of a kitchen that we had
designed 14 years ago. The owners say
they are thrilled with the end result.”
