HERNE BAY, AUCKLAND
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.
This home is a seamless blend of bespoke craftsmanship, modern design, and enduring materials—brought together with precision and care by the Fluid Interiors team.
