The Brief

To create a seamless blend of exceptional interiors and striking architecture, celebrating the boldness and joy of using color.

What We Did

This stunning home on Waiheke Island offers breathtaking sea views and serves as a peaceful retreat from citylife. Designed by Erina Emery, the space bursts with color and custom-made pieces to reflect the owner’s personality. The master bedroom features a bespoke bed with floating oak shelves beneath a striking Helen Bankers floral wall, creating an energetic focal point. Custom headboards and carefully selected fabrics give each bedroom its own unique theme.

To manage the mid-summer sun, double-tracked window treatments provide both shade and warmth. The dining area’s rustic vibe complements a gorgeous Waiheke stone-exposed fireplace, blending nature with modern design. The powder room stands out with vibrant green walls and a pineapple light feature, while the guest wing, with its rich orange velvet seating and marble-look accents, offers a luxurious, tropical feel.

This project exemplifies the power of bold, creative design and the joy of bringing individuality into every space.
