Breathing space
After living in London and central Auckland, Kate and Jesse decided to head west to be closer to the countryside. Riverhead, says Kate, has a small-town feel to it, so they bought a corner section there and set about designing a family home to suit them and their “outdoor kids”.
“Before our build, we’d often go for walks and bike rides in the area – down by the river and boardwalk,” she says. “A lot of the design elements within the home reference back to the textures, patterns and contrasts from the river and surrounds. We love being out in nature so having the river, walkways, pond, and mountain-bike tracks close by is perfect.”
