A well-loved 300m2 home in Palmerston North finds itself with a new lease of life following a full renovation to accommodate its owners growing needs and love for mid-century modern design. This home has taken on a fit for purpose, yet flexible, design that caters exceptionally to family living.

Two socialites from Wellington sought new career opportunities in Manawatu, opting for a slower lifestyle on a picturesque property with a private pond. Their vision for the home was clear: a welcoming haven for entertaining friends with spacious, conversational furniture layouts and a central kitchen acting as the heart of the house. Emphasising warmth and brightness, they opted for a textural palette of whites across all design elements, ensuring each space exuded a cosy yet contemporary feel.

A house that required accessibility upgrades to the kitchen and bathroom areas. We approached the challenge with a strong colour palette to bring some fun to the functionality needed in the space. Shifting elements to the laundry, reorienting the bathroom and bringing much needed accessible cooking upgrades really brought this space to life.

Emma Brown had several things she wanted to achieve in her second new build home. First, to create a spacious home better suited for her growing family. Secondly, to showcase design elements and styles that her clients could see and touch by experiencing them first-hand. But most importantly, she wanted a home that embodied everything about her style – a striking design with a homely feel.
