PORTFOLIO
Check out some of our recent projects.
ASHTON FITCHETT
We worked with an enthusiastic and creative set of clients to design and build a comfortable space with an expansive deck. The pergola features travelling screens that can be set in a range of positions and is wired for a projector, screen and exterior sound system, as well as lighting.
APARIMA
This space was designed to maximise indoor-outdoor flow and create zones for cooking, eating and relaxing for the whole family. Features include an opening louvre roof, built-in pizza oven, curved countertops with a polished finish, honed block feature wall and beams that suspend a cosy hanging seat. We worked with great clients to design and install the various elements to bring the whole vision together and create a warm space to read a book, eat dinner or relax in the sun.
BANKS
This outdoor living and dining area covers all bases. A built in BBQ, pizza oven, and polished concrete counters make this space the grill chefs dream. The opening louvre roof with built in lighting makes for enjoyable entertaining all year round, and the bench seating provides storage and a comfortable perch while everything sizzles.
KINLOCH
This sunny site incorporated a new upper and lower deck, bench seating, retaining walls, paving and native planting to establish a well-loved and often-used backyard space.
ENDEAVOUR
This design was focused on providing shelter and function to a wind driven site, while giving the outdoor living area an interesting backdrop without limiting the view. This was achieved by excavating a series of low hunkered terraces and erecting a wind wall that follows the roofline of the adjacent property.
CHESHIRE
This terraced garden was created with excavations to allow for a deck connecting the upper gardens to the newly created patio. Featuring a stone wall, terraced retaining, kwila decking, patio and a pergola. Textural plantings, the natural material pallete and stain finishes help soften the edges of the construction.
BUNGALOW
Another topographical challenge, this large-scale cut/fill operation resulted in the creation of a large useable area from what had been a sloping bank. Retaining, additional stairs and the reconfiguration of the decks surrounding the house has upgraded this classic bungalow, without losing any of its charm.
AMALFI
At this site, we were asked to design something that would feel like a holiday. The existing cypress and olive trees set the stage for what became known to us, and the clients, as Amalfi. Cool cream tones from the ceramic tiles contrast beautifully with the Caribbean composite decking, and the white pergola adds structure that finishes the space.
WAIKANAE
This cosy fireplace and deck features long-lasting and low-maintenance materials. The use of composite decking and stone cladding add a sophisticated quality that will look great for years to come.
