DX3 undertook a substantial redesign of this home in Remuera with a brief to create a master suite and additional bedroom to the upper floor, replan the midfloor to provide an extended open plan living area, guest accommodation and office and add internal access to the garage and utility areas in the basement whilst also adding a wine cellar. The backyard redesign included a new inground swimming pool and covered outdoor entertainment area.
KRAFTWORX ARCHITECTURE WAS ESTABLISHED BY DIRECTORS CAMERON SHIELDS AND EVAN CRIGHTON AND MERGED WITH CAMERON’S DX3 PRACTICE.
