This collaboration between ourselves and VidaSpace explores the use of TABU timber veneers. The striking veneer patterns are displayed to enhance the magic of each design bringing interiors and art together.
Drawing inspiration from moments in our lives we consider our own memories and how they are frozen in time. A concept derived from the history of a trees’ own life recorded in its every growth ring.
There are conscious and unconscious selections of items and finishes within our own spaces that create context and contribute to the mood and atmosphere of moments captured in our memories.
Using the timber veneers as a subject we framed views throughout the space to create compositions of materiality and form. Complementing the finishes to develop schemes that can be translated into real life.
The installation could not have been made possible without the expertise of Simon at Craftbuilt Industries whose team produced the joinery on display and complimentary Organoidnatural wall covering was supplied by Austaron.
Kanat Studio is an Auckland-based interior design practice founded by Kate Pilot and Natalia Glucina. Specialising in bespoke residential and commercial interiors, we collaborate with architects and clients to create spaces that evoke atmosphere and reflect the essence of the individual or brand.
We believe great design is both beautiful and functional — it flows effortlessly, supports daily life, and elevates the experience of space. With a considered and collaborative approach, we guide each project from concept to completion, managing every detail with care and clarity.
At Kanat, design is a lived experience. We look at how people move, live, and feel within a space, designing for real-life rhythms. From spatial flow to the emotional impact of materials, every choice is made with purpose and intention.
Whether creating something new or transforming the existing, we offer full-service design, procurement, and project management. Our process is transparent, collaborative, and grounded in mutual respect — resulting in thoughtful, enduring spaces with character.
