Remuera Ensuite Renovation: Modern Serenity Unveiled

Project Overview

Our client Lawrence’s home in Karaka has been extended by 500sqm to accommodate their growing lifestyle. This was an excellent opportunity to increase their living spaces and add to the value of their home.

Lawrence wanted 2 kitchens. Each to be its own unique space delivering its own unique function. The main kitchen is about luxury, elegance, simplicity and spaciousness. The other kitchen served a more functional space for the heavier kitchen work to keep the day-to-day cooking smells out of the house.

I was surprised with the kitchen design, it was exactly what I wanted because I don’t like too many colors in the kitchen. The work done by Jimmy and his team was absolutely amazing, they went above and beyond to achieve utmost customer satisfaction. They were always punctual and hardworking. Their work was always to the highest standard, and Jimmy was always checking their progress and workmanship. A very important aspect for me was how Jimmy was always available to answer any questions and any issues were resolved immediately.

Before the renovation

The ensuite, although in good condition, required a touch of modernisation to align with the evolving tastes of the homeowner.

The house, a 1900’s villa, boasted enduring quality, setting the stage for a renovation that respects the historical essence while introducing contemporary elements.

The custom-made vanity was a necessity due to specific size requirements, featuring a countertop basin for both practicality and aesthetics.

After the renovation

The project was completed in 3 weeks. The newly renovated ensuite achieves a delicate balance between freshness, elegance, and functionality. The standout feature, the half wall with Resene Comfortably Numb, serves as a visual highlight, elevating the entire space. The high-end Italian-made countertop basin, combined with the custom vanity, adds a luxurious touch. The efficient communication between the project manager and owner facilitated a seamless process. With a 1-year workmanship guarantee and a 15-year waterproof warranty, the client can enjoy the revitalized ensuite for years to come.

Overall look & feel

Upon entering the renovated ensuite, one is welcomed by a seamless fusion of simplicity and elegance.

The fresh, airy ambiance is heightened by new LED downlights, perfectly complementing the high ceiling.

The half wall adorned with City White Gloss tiles in a 200*400mm format, painted in Resene Comfortably Numb, steals the spotlight, providing a striking backdrop for the contemporary fixtures.

Materials

The custom-made 1x1m frameless pull-out door shower enhances the perception of space, offering both functionality and style.

The floor adorned with Elegance White matte 600x600mm tiles provides a clean and timeless base, while Technokolla waterproof products ensure durability.

The use of full Aqualine GIB and high-quality waterproofing solidify the foundation of the revamped ensuite.

Bathroom Cabinets and Storage

The ensuite storage is ingeniously incorporated into a 1500mm wall freestanding countertop vanity. Crafted with Best Wood Jarrah Legend wood grain panels and a 30mm thickness White Sky benchtop, the vanity exudes sophistication. Hafele Alto running drawers maximize storage, and the Valdama Pod basin atop adds a touch of Italian elegance.

The 1200mm LED mirror from Renoarts, equipped with auto-demist, color change, and dimmer functions, elevates both aesthetics and functionality.

Fixtures, Fittings, and Appliances

Chrome-colored tapware from Engelfield complements the ensemble, providing a touch of modernity.

Resene Alabaster and Comfortably Numb paints adorn the ceilings and walls, creating a fresh and cohesive atmosphere.

The ensuite features an Evora rimless back-to-wall toilet, combining ease of cleaning with a modern design.
