Citrus House banner

The Citrus House gets its name from the client's love of saturated oranges and greens. We were engaged to create more functionality within the most used space within their home. The kitchen/dining room. The space needed to cater for dinner guests, casual family socialising and quiet morning lounging.  

Boxy built-in seating was influenced by the home's architecture, kitchen design and existing white base palette. The long orange seating extends beyond the dining table and appears to float on it's plinth base. At the end is a raised surface to rest your coffee cup or wine glass. A large bi-folding window enhances the sense of space and blurs the line between in and out, especially so in warmer months.

A black-stained ash daybed gives opportunities to inject further colour and personality within it's under-seat open shelving both to the front and end of the unit. 

The wall-mounted String shelving is a modern classic piece that functions as an entry console, hiding away everyday items as well as providing additional surface space for a speaker and other special items. 

This is a casually curated art home meant for sharing.

About the
Professional

Kanat is an Auckland-based Interior Design studio specialising in bespoke Residential and Small Commercial interiors.

Good design creates a sense of ease, both in the process and the end result. It enhances the experience of space and makes it a joy to inhabit.

Aesthetics, atmosphere and practicalities are considered equally. The influence one has on the next produces a magic. That magic is felt through the memorable moments of simply inhabiting a beautifully designed space. It enhances our clients’ lives both functionally and aesthetically. And it flows from the things they hold close, that we are able to bring out and into the world with them.

We work closely with our clients to develop principles that will guide and inform their design, this process creates spaces that have intention and a true connection between client and design.

Our design experience spans apartment living, mid-high end residential, workspaces and retail interiors and offers design, procurement and project management capabilities.
