Childrens Nursery
The design brief called for a traditional childrens nursery that could be used for either a girl or boy. The concept needed to be able to take the child through the years. By simply adding or subtracting the furnishings as the child grows the core concept remains the same. Parkhurst Design selected and designed the painting layout on the walls and sourced the upholstery and fabrics for the bedding, canopy and roman blind which were custom made to suit.

Waikato Home Show 2009 – NZ Interior Design Award – Gold Award
Parkhurst Design won the prestigious New Zealand Interior Design Award at the Waikato Home & Garden Show in 2009. The award saw five interior designers display their talents within 4x5m room. The challenge was for each designer to interpret the theme “Four Seasons” Kim chose spring and designed a bathroom setting to showcase her talents. “I wanted to create something that Waikato People could instantly identify with. One side of the bathroom was created for the man of the house with a large cradle-style outdoor bath set against a backdrop of rolling green Waikato pasture. A trickling water feature added to a calming atmosphere while a stand of bright clivias behind the bath provided a burst of colour. In typical bloke fashion, gumboots and Swandri were slumped in a pile on the floor and an inviting bottle of steinlager sat on the edge of the bath. The other side of the bathroom was created with the lady of the house in mind. Twin sinks with stunning tapware were offset against elegant wallpaper. An oversized shower, with twin showerheads, was lined with textured tiles. A glimpse of the pasture beyond through a picture window and soft lighting courtesy of an elegant six-drop light fitting completed the room.

Auckland Residence
This lovely Auckland home sits proud overlooking water.

The clients have a young family so with this in mind the interior colour scheme was based around family living. Although this home took a couple of years from concept to completion, it maintains the notion that good homes evolve over time and this is certainly the case here.
