Turning Over A New Leaf

In a butter-yellow art deco house built in the 1940s, features director Lucy Slight and her radio broadcaster husband Clint Roberts live with their two British Short hair cats, Ziggy and Bowie. The couple bought the home in New Lynn, Auckland, almost three years ago and knew it was ‘meant to be’ as soon as they walked through the door.

The lounge, where they spend most of their time, is Lucy’s favourite room and she loves finding eclectic pieces for it at op-shops and online stores, and weekends are spent perusing wholesale plant nurseries for tropical specimens.

How have you decorated your living room?

The only things we had when we moved in were the couch and coffee table, so it’s been really fun building up this room over time and creating an interior style unique to our home. Buying secondhand pieces of furniture and decor has helped the styling remain in keeping with the character of the house.

What’s your favourite thing to do in the room?
