The light-filled, living-dining-kitchen space
is the star of the home. The kitchen has a marble
island with a bevelled benchtop that provides for
casual seating, while the rear cabinetry extends
the use of plywood. A window splashback
throws natural light onto kitchen worksurfaces.
Most arresting, though, are the room’s many
links to the outdoors. Decks reach out to views
to the north, east and west – so there’s always
a sheltered spot despite Taranaki’s changeable
weather. Plus, the deck that tucks in between the
master suite and living zone has roof louvres,
effectively creating an outdoor living room.

kitchen island front is under-lit to
emphasise the design. Plywood
cabinetry extends the use of this
sustainable material in the home.
Facing page lower: The west-facing
deck has its own pebble roof garden
while the east deck has a louvred roof.

The outdoor living areas, north and
covered east deck included, further
extend the size of the living spaces.
