This restored mid-century gem balances timeless architecture with a fresh, modern spirit. A thoughtful renovation honours the home’s original era, while prominent pops of bold colour bring new life to its interiors. At the heart of the transformation is a versatile pool house—effortlessly stylish and made for contemporary living, yet perfectly in step with its mid-century roots.

Summer 2020
A huge thank you to Simply You Living Magazine for featuring our home back in the Summer 2010 edition. It was incredible to see a 10-page spread celebrating our colorful space, reflecting my passion for blending old and new, with curiosities collected over the years and vibrant splashes of color to spark joy.
Although the magazine is no longer in stores, it’s still a wonderful memory of that feature—and a great reminder of all the inspiring articles that edition had for summer reading.

2019
In 2019, I had the pleasure of sharing my passion for designing outdoor spaces that seamlessly blend with indoor living areas, all while staying within budget. This was highlighted in Your Home and Garden when our home won the fifth Resene Colour Home Award. This recognition followed our achievement as the Supreme Resene Colour Award winner back in 2010.
