Lifestyle

Stepping into the shower should be an experience, not just a daily necessity. It’s a belief that designer Andy Grigor constantly keeps in mind: that good design can turn everyday routines into restorative rituals.

New Zealand is a country with a fascinating history in residential architecture with a myriad of housing styles that have dotted the landscape during a relatively short period of time. This becomes even more evident when looking to build or buy a home — something that can quickly become overwhelming when trying to distinguish one style from the next and which might be best for you.

LIV+ by Living Design is opening the doors to its first Auckland showroom, introducing a new space for architects, interior designers, joiners and homeowners to engage directly with European-made interior materials and products. Located within the Residium Design + Building Centre in Parnell, the showroom has been conceived as a place for considered specification, comparison and informed decision-making.
