The options are endless when you build from scratch, but Sophie had a very specific home in mind when she and husband Dan designed their family home, to be built on their rural property in North Auckland. The land, a former working olive grove, offered two hectares of treescape, paddocks for their growing assortment of farmyard friends, as well as a section that they could build an expansive single level home on, overlooking a lush valley of native trees.

"I knew that I wanted something light and creamy, a coastal feel. We had to make all of our interior selections during the first lock down in 2020 which was challenging. The flooring had to be practical, light in tone and a solution that could run seamlessly through the home, including in the kitchen, to create an open, spacious, and cohesive feel. We’ve found Quick-Step Majestic to be ridiculously forgiving of mud and dirt, always cleaning up so well! It’s also standing the test of time brilliantly against dog claws, toys, dropped items, the kids bikes and even our little lambs who wander in. Since moving in, we’ve hired our home out for shoot days with filming, lighting, and photography equipment. Furniture is inevitably moved around. You name it, the floor has withstood it!"
