EXPERT CABINETRY DETAILING AND INSTALLATION FOR A CHARACTER-FILLED MT EDEN VILLA
Working closely with interior designers at.space and the building team at The Building Co, Fluid Interiors detailed, manufactured, and installed the custom cabinetry and veneer panelling throughout this stunning character villa in Mt Eden, Auckland.
The kitchen and bar showcase warm American oak veneer cabinetry combined with sleek black Eternal Marquina Suede stone benchtops and a custom powder-coated black steel breakfast bar featuring distinctive oak round leg details. This sophisticated blend of natural materials and industrial accents flows seamlessly into the veneer-panelled walls, creating a cohesive and elegant living space.
Touches of blue bring personality throughout the home — from the custom teal cabinetry in the scullery to the matte black TV unit with matching blue handles. We’re proud to have played a part in crafting this beautiful, thoughtfully detailed home.
MODERN KITCHEN DESIGN WITH FLUTED ISLAND AND SANT ANGELO GRANITE
This Long Bay kitchen renovation by Fluid Interiors demonstrates how premium materials and thoughtful cabinetry design can elevate a space. The result is a bold yet functional kitchen that perfectly balances aesthetics with practicality.
The hero of the space is the Sensa Sant Angelo Leathered Granite benchtop and splashback, known for its striking texture, deep tones, and dramatic veining. This bold stone sets the tone for the room and acts as the visual anchor of the kitchen.
Complementing the granite are custom cabinets in Melteca Classic Oak and Prime Dezigna White, offering a mix of natural warmth and crisp contrast. Together, these materials create a cohesive and inviting space that feels modern yet grounded.
A standout feature is the custom fluted curved island, constructed using Genia architectural panelling. This sculptural element softens the layout and enhances flow, turning the island into a functional centrepiece for entertaining and everyday living.
Brass accents, including Lo & Co handles and ABI Interiors tapware, introduce a refined warmth and tie in with the natural materials throughout. Integrated LED lighting brings everything to life, highlighting textures, enhancing functionality, and creating ambience across key areas.
From the kitchen and scullery to the laundry, study nook, and TV unit, this project reflects Fluid Interiors’ commitment to tailored cabinetry and timeless design.
RUSTIC MODERN KITCHEN WITH AGED ASH CABINETRY AND CAESARSTONE BENCHTOPS
Nestled within a stunning home featuring light reclaimed brick cladding, this kitchen perfectly marries rustic warmth with contemporary style. Crafted with Aged Ash Melteca cabinetry and topped with sleek Caesarstone Snow benchtops, the space exudes an inviting and timeless appeal.
A discreet bifold door reveals a hidden bar area, adding a touch of elegance and functionality. Bright natural light floods the airy scullery through adjacent windows, creating a seamless flow between the kitchen and outdoor spaces. The kitchen island’s back features delicate thin V-groove detailing, adding subtle texture and visual interest.
Accents of brass hardware and natural materials enrich the kitchen’s design, balancing rural charm with modern sophistication. As the heart of this beautifully styled home, the kitchen embodies the perfect rural lifestyle kitchen—warm, practical, and effortlessly stylish.
HERNE BAY VILLA RENOVATION WITH HIGH-END BESPOKE CABINETRY
In collaboration with the talented team at at.space, architectural expertise from Jones Architect, and the skilled builders at The Building Co, Fluid Interiors detailed, manufactured, and installed the custom cabinetry throughout this stunning Herne Bay villa renovation.
Balancing the home’s classic character with contemporary flair, the interiors showcase a thoughtfully curated palette of natural American oak veneer, soft greys, warm pinks, rich navy, and sleek black. From the kitchen and scullery to the living room, vanities, and custom study areas, each space has been carefully considered to suit both function and refined everyday living.
The kitchen features honed Super White granite benchtops and custom cabinetry in a blend of Acrymatte, 2-pot urethane (Dulux Western Myall G10), and American Oak quarter cut veneer. In the scullery, Corian Silver Birch benchtops are paired with Prime Melamine and hand-finished 2-pot lacquer in Dulux Titahi Bay G10 for a clean, modern contrast.
