Bureaux's recently completed renovation of a heritage home in Auckland illustrates an old-age lustre re-awakened with a present-day elegance.
With grand volumes bathed in natural light, the villa references architectural periods bygone, while celebrating contemporary living, with a spatial design fit for the modern family. Rich in texture and re-incarnated heritage details, a soft tonal palette reinforced with delicate curves, the home achieves a sought-after simplicity that is seemingly hard to embody.
