Clive Residence

Introducing the Clive Residence, a contemporary masterpiece that blends seamlessly with the Clive family's humble abode. The journey began in 2023 with the vision of expanding and renovating there existing cottage nestled in the hills of Paeroa, a task we embraced with open arms. Collaborating with the Clives was a joy, as we worked together to transform their home into a haven of natural light and elevated design. We carefully crafted functional zones, culminating in a larger-than-life kitchen that serves as the heart of the home.  At Paton Kitchens, we revel in challenges that push our creative boundaries while staying true to our clients' aspirations and budget. The star of this project is the Dekton Marina, a stunning addition that became the focal point of the space. The spacious layout and ample storage solutions cater perfectly to a bustling family life. The striking blue island adds a touch of elegance, tying in seamlessly with the rest of the house's colour palette. Stainless steel and chrome finishes bring a sense of sophistication, while hints of black add a modern twist to the overall design. Every detail was meticulously curated to create a homely yet stylish sanctuary for the Clive family. We carefully selected every detail, from the robust Blum hardware to the cleverly integrated hideaway concealed bins, which enhance both the kitchen’s functionality and its aesthetic appeal. In terms of materials, we used Meltica Warm White Naturale for cabinetry, offering a soft, warm tone that pairs well with the darker accents. The deep blue cabinetry is finished in Laminex Acrylic Matte Navy, lending a contemporary edge while maintaining a timeless quality. We also take great pride in the craftsmanship of our cabinetry. As part of our commitment to quality, we provide plywood toebases with attached coloured fronts, avoiding the use of plastic feet—ensuring both durability and a refined finish. This project stands as a testament to how thoughtful design, budget-conscious decision-making, and attention to detail can come together to create a family home that is both beautiful and functional.
