These pages: Bathrooms and bedrooms in the villa
were reworked as part of the project with new
skylights bringing natural light into the master
bedroom and ensuite. The existing Matai native
timber floors were restored and oiled. While
traditional detailing was generally retained in the
villa, the reworked family bathroom is clean-lined
and contemporary in flavour.
