Kapiti Coast, Wellington
As a coastal holiday weekend retreat, this home needed to offer relaxing spaces, operate as a practical home away from home, and be durable for guests.
The pavilion-style floorplan easily resolves the desire for separation/relaxing areas – separating the bedrooms in one wing from open-plan living and entertaining spaces. An interior black feature wall in the centre of the home creates a connection to the exterior vertical black weatherboards and horizontal cedar cladding.
The clean lined kitchen mixes colours – including black and white – with textures – including warm hued oak cabinetry and cool stone bench tops and splashback. The integrated fridge and hidden walk-in pantry complete the crisp, easy maintenance streamlined look.
