This Lakeside Queenstown renovation will be coming to life later this year, with uninterrupted views out over Lake Wakatipu. The design isn’t trying to compete with the surroundings, it’s about working with them and letting the landscape do its thing.
The existing rimu features are being paired with complementary timbers and soft, considered paint colours. Materials that sit comfortably together and feel right in the space.
It’s definitely not all about how things look . This project is really about thoughtful design, spaces that function well, feel good to live in, and will stand the test of time.
I have chosen materials that are durable and timeless, with longevity in mind. Future-proofing has also been a big part of the conversation, with ageing in place considered early on rather than as an afterthought.
Simple things like adding extra fixings behind key walls now can make life much easier down the track if they’re ever needed.
It’s a really exciting project, and I can’t wait to see it all come together.
