Bayswater Kitchen – A Seamless Collaboration in Contemporary Design
A thoughtful collaboration between Fluid Interiors and interior designer Cathryn Davey of Revision Space, this Bayswater kitchen renovation is a refined expression of curated materiality and considered craftsmanship — where every detail has been chosen with purpose, and where modern functionality meets Mediterranean warmth.
From the moment you step into the space, a calm, organic palette welcomes you. Custom kitchen cabinetry in Melteca Baikal Natural pairs elegantly with Melteca Aged Walnut for a finish that feels both grounded and elevated. The addition of Ripple Flex 47 Oak panels, stained to match, brings a fluid sense of movement and visual softness to the joinery.
At the centre of this contemporary Auckland kitchen design is the hero: a dramatic Calacatta Verde honed marble splashback, designed with radiused corners and framed by negative space. More than a surface, it functions as a sculptural focal point — proof that utility and artistry can co-exist. Even the olive oil bottle was selected to echo the green veining of the marble — a subtle nod to the level of detail driving every design decision.
The benchtops are Porcelain Laminam Supernova Luna White, just 12mm thick for a clean, modern silhouette. Integrated negative detail handles give the cabinetry a seamless look, complemented by Signature brass hardware on the walnut bi-folds and satin nickel handles on the Baikal fronts. A full-height wall of push-touch cabinetry in curved Ripple Flex paneling completes the picture — sculptural, practical, and quietly luxurious.
This bespoke kitchen is a masterclass in New Zealand interior design, bringing together natural textures, refined finishes, and innovative detailing. A daily space elevated into an immersive, tactile experience — balancing beauty, function, and timeless design.
A KITCHEN INSPIRED BY HOSPITALITY — CUSTOM CABINETRY BY FLUID INTERIORS
Inspired by sleek commercial kitchens, boutique hotels, and stylish bars and restaurants, this Westmere kitchen combines modern design with warm, natural textures. Fluid Interiors worked closely with our clients to design, manufacture, and install custom cabinetry that reflected their vision and lifestyle.
The clean lines and steel-framed glass scullery create a sophisticated yet inviting space, perfectly suited for family living and entertaining. The American oak cabinetry features elegant grain that contrasts beautifully against durable granite benchtops. Above the breakfast bar, bespoke shelving filled with greenery softens the linear architecture, adding a refreshing, organic touch.
One of the standout features is the undercover outdoor area. The custom-made cabinetry, crafted from rough sawn cedar matching the home’s exterior cladding, integrates effortlessly with the surroundings. It conceals practical elements like a wine fridge, bins, and storage for wine glasses, towels, and rugs — combining style and function in an outdoor entertaining haven.
Stunning High-Rise Apartment with Bespoke Cabinetry and Timber Joinery
Perched 37 stories above central Auckland, this apartment offers breathtaking, uninterrupted city views. As you step inside, the kitchen feels both functional and inviting, perfectly fitting within the spacious 3.6m stud open-plan living area.
The client had a clear vision, wanting to include some treasured fittings saved from their childhood home. Our custom solid walnut floating shelves provide the perfect spot to display these special pieces and add warmth and character to the space.
The kitchen’s two-tone design features beautiful American Walnut veneer cabinetry with crown cut staining, paired with full-height 100 x 100 tiles that bring texture and a nod to a modern 70s aesthetic. The breakfast bar and floating shelving are crafted from custom solid walnut with a durable resin finish, showcasing our attention to detail and quality.
Down the hallway, we crafted a custom walnut door that leads to a stunning library. There, our bespoke solid walnut floating shelves are complemented by a custom movable ladder, designed and built by Fluid Interiors to allow easy access to the entire space.
This project truly reflects Fluid Interiors’ passion for creating tailored cabinetry and joinery that bring personality and craftsmanship to modern homes.
