With panoramic views of farmland and distant verdant hills, this family home in the sunny Hawkes Bay was built in 1973 by renowned New Zealand architect, John Scott.
As the childhood home of the client the house carries special meaning to this busy family, so when it came the time to add some new touches, Nikki McNamara of Stylemaker was called upon to turn their vision into reality.
Aside from a recent new kitchen, most of the building is original with many spaces that the homeowners wanted to refresh to create more cohesion and consistency.
Nikki’s goal was to be respectful of the home’s precious original story, celebrate its architectural merits, and highlight its country setting.
