Elegant residence at Tara Iti featuring bespoke cabinetry and seamless integration of natural materials, designed to enhance the surrounding dune landscape.

Set gracefully within Tara Iti’s dune-formed contours, this residence is an elegant synthesis of shelter and perspective. At the heart of this project lies DBJ’s extraordinary cabinetry—a language of craft that dialogues fluently with the architecture. Their custom cabinetry, wall-integrated storage, and bespoke furniture are sculpted as if they grew from the spaces themselves: finely detailed, planar, and calming.

Using a rich, moody palette of natural timbers, the build-ins offer seamless transitions—from streamlined kitchen arrangements to elegantly hidden storage and display elements. The tactile quality of the joinery enriches the minimalist material language, accentuating planes of shadow, texture, and proportion.

“We used DBJ for our latest project building, our home. We were very definite that we wanted to have a metal kitchen and the whole interior design of the house was formed around our metal kitchen. However a metal kitchen wasn’t as easy to produce as the idea was. We worked with DBJ over several months to find a finish that they developed for us. The final result of an aged brass kitchen was exactly what we wanted. DBJ went out of their way to create a complicated bespoke kitchen. Their service was fabulous any issues that came up were rectified. It was a pleasure to work with DBJ.”
