Oneroa Bay

Overlooking Oneroa Bay on Waiheke Island, this private residence brings kitchen, dining and living spaces together through a restrained palette and carefully resolved joinery. Warm timber, pale stone and soft neutral finishes create a quiet backdrop to the coastal outlook. The kitchen is conceived as part of the wider interior, with cabinetry, island proportions and material transitions considered alongside the adjoining spaces. The same approach carries through the bathrooms and staircase, creating a coherent interior shaped by natural light, texture and the way the home is experienced from room to room.
