A well-loved 300m2 home in Palmerston North finds itself with a new lease of life following a full renovation to accommodate its owners growing needs and love for mid-century modern design. This home has taken on a fit for purpose, yet flexible, design that caters exceptionally to family living. From an open plan living/kitchen room to an office/music room, every area of this home has been designed for collective and harmonised living. Full interior design elevates the home's aesthetics with the clean lines and bold colours recognisable of mid century modern. Custom joinery further accents every room, including a midcentury custom built-in couch

Beyond the original structure of the home lies a well thought out extension that encompasses a modern and sleek garage design that doubles as a workshop and storage space. An adjoining staircase winds its way up to the bedrooms of the family’s growing children, boasting privacy yet connectedness to the main areas of the home.

Love and attention wasn’t just exclusive to the interior of the home. All new cladding and windows to the entire house makes this home a desirable stand-out for street appeal. A covered lean-to for a trailer and washing lines nestled to the side of the home provides a practical use of the home's limited yard space.

This home is the perfect example of how aesthetic and functional elements of a home don’t have to conflict, but rather complement each other to create a beautiful home that effectively caters to the needs of its owners.
