Lux Modernisation banner

This beautiful 1930s bungalow in Epsom called for a luxurious modernization befitting of its high-end address. The exterior envelope was relatively simple, and the interior spaces were compact, without any special detailing.

To reinvent the home, a midcentury style was incorporated. An interplay between rich walnut cabinetry in the kitchen and ensuite, against rimu timber floors was a delicate balancing act. Editing the floors to a dark sepia tone has married the spaces beautifully and anchored a feeling of sophistication. Sentimental family art has been reframed and peppered throughout the home. New artworks were also sourced by Wolfe to reflect continuity with a midcentury theme.

Collaboration with this client began in 2017 – engaging an interior designer was a unique experience. For Wolfe, building trust and creating an enrichening design journey for the client, was just as important as a successful outcome.

About the
Professional

As an established interior design studio based in Mangawhai, Northland, Wolfe offers bespoke designs for coveted residential homes and commercial projects from Auckland to Langs Beach, Mangawhai, Matakana and Omaha.

Wolfe believes that interior design is about self-expression. From concept to completion, every client and project is unique. The studio’s boutique team work collaboratively and intelligently to deliver timeless design that continues to delight, long after a project is complete.  

With long-standing industry relationships, Wolfe works closely with architects, landscape designers, art consultants and leading design professionals.

For more than 20 years, founder Kim Munro has curated a diverse portfolio for high-end residential and commercial clientele.

More recently, the studio explored what interior design services could (and should) look like for their business. They discovered an unwavering commitment for putting the client at the heart of every decision and delivering bold, yet intuitive design. Out of this valuable exercise came a revitalisation of their brand. Formerly Munro & Co, the name change to Wolfe Interior Design is an exciting reflection of the company’s values and vision.
