Moody Colour Palettes:

A return to the dark side! A resurgence of love for dark and moody vibes is on the rise. Showcasing a minimal and sleek style this colour palette is sure to create a standout feature to the home, and combining it with a statement lighting is sure to wow anyone.

Green tones:

Green has been a go to for a few years now with many of showhomes incorporating this popular colour. While green is said to have a calming effect we can’t help but get excited when we see these gorgeous hues as feature walls and cabinetry!

Luxe Touches:

A little glitz and glam has been popping up in our showhomes, we’ve seen lots of statement lighting, feature walls, luxurious bathrooms and even a hidden bar and wine cellar in our Rodney West showhome.

Hidden Sculleries:

Hidden sculleries are becoming a popular feature that provide both functionality and style to any kitchen. Concealed behind what looks like another pantry door lies endless opportunities; hide mess from guests, extra space for a large household, an extra sink or fridge and plenty of additional storage. These secret little hideaways are definitely growing in popularity.

Feature Walls:

Feature walls have been a trend for a few years now, but this year was the resurgence of wall panelling. Combining panelling with bold colours like green and blue, or popular textured effects like limewash or brick, and subtle patterned wallpapers are taking this trend up a notch.

Indoor-Outdoor Flow:

Perhaps not a trend but a major priority for kiwi style living is indoor-outdoor flow. Prioritising the flow from indoor spaces like the kitchen to outdoor dining and lounges creates the perfect space for entertaining and the typical kiwi summer bbq's. Plus the ability to open up the spaces and bring the outdoors in.
