The Nautilus
By Corner Room Design
At the Nautilus in Orewa, I was asked to transform a tired two-bedroom apartment into a luxury beach getaway.
All measures were taken to ensure the project was carried out in an ethical way. Poly carpets and vinyl were uplifted and replaced by natural timber planks.
Bespoke Timber Coatings is a New Zealand manufacturer and supplier of high-quality, sustainable timber flooring working together with Forestry New Zealand's One Billion Trees Programme.
Existing Art pieces were carefully reworked in the new colour scheme. This avoided excess waste and created a stunning feature in the living area.
The kitchen was refaced, saving all existing cabinetry minimising waste.
New crisp white cabinet doors, teamed with natural hex tiles, made the kitchen, light, bright and modern. Without having to replace the countertops, it looked like a brand new kitchen.
Freedom furniture provided the drapes in the new ethical, VOC free linen range, and the bedding was hand-selected to only include ethical and sustainable brands of organic cotton and bamboo.
Overall the clients were thrilled with the results and the space feels natural and chic.

About the
Professional
Welcome to a place where we can align our love of stunning interiors and design with our commitment to the amazing planet we all call home.
Although I have worked for over a decade, passionately bringing interiors, artworks and exhibits to life, I’m also a military trained chef and a qualified yoga teacher. I have designed and manufactured a clothing line out of London and Brazil, lived and worked in more than 7 countries including Antarctica, and travelled to more than I can easily recall. At the core of all this creativity and insight, I have had a deep love of the planet and all its creations for my entire life.
My mission and genuine passion, is to inspire change in the design industry, to share knowledge and support the people doing fantastic things. It can seem overwhelming to choose the right shade of white sometimes, let alone create an entire space or renovation while considering the environment.
By showcasing and sharing products, services and project ideas, together, I believe we can learn to live a beautifully designed life with a lighter footprint.
