Matakana Coast

This breathtaking project was one we worked in collaboration with architect Belinda George, who's truly stunning design required a complete understanding of whom purchased this unique property. With the intent of creating their forever home the home owner wanted to capture the essence of New Zealand's coastal beauty while living in a soft serene way, respectful of the land. Fortunately we had all worked together before, so to pay homage to the architecture we wanted to introduce organic and irregular shapes focusing on rolling curves, furniture with movement and natural textures. The Matheus 'S' shaped sofa leads you from a view of the zen garden, to sitting in front of the fire and out to the expansive ocean views. Bullfrog Design of Germany, with its unique functionality, took centre stage of the sun drenched outdoor space. The Lagoon curved sofa and Yao swivel & rocking armchair with matching footstools allow you to take in the panoramic rural and coastal views in comfort. Then as the sun sets you can continue to enjoy the space with the warmth of the outdoor fire. Interior wise our Italian manufactures were showcased with furniture by Reflex, Pininfarina, Giulio Marelli and Midj. Sitting comfortably alongside these international manufactures were our own designs made exclusively in Central Otago.  Finishing touches comprised of art from Spanish and New Zealand artists.
