“We are pausing on our Christmas Eve to breathe in gratitude for you, the team and what we accomplished this year. The Villa and staff received rave reviews; ‘We’ve been fortunate to stay at some high end locations in our lives but this could be the best we’ve ever seen”
— DON FERGUSSON - FALCON BRAE VILLA

Drawing on the beautiful natural surroundings and river view, we designed each suite at Stonefly Lodge – Falcon Brae Villa to reflect its namesake in aesthetic and colour while feeling warm and comforting.

A truly turn-key project; our work included custom joinery, a bespoke sunken bar, lighting specification, custom upholstered furniture throughout, full styling and homewares specification - right down to the kitchenware and crockery.

We worked in tandem alongside JTB Architects, using the soaring timber beam interior expanses that they beautifully created, to fill each space with warmth, homeliness, and an overall feeling of luxury, appropriate for the discerning international clientele that this villa will play host to.

With nearly 30 years of combined design experience from across New Zealand, Australia, UK and Europe, we have established our personal ethos and foundations in design.

Our years working in world-leading design studios, putting our touch on luxury residential homes, developments and hotels, has given us sound skills and knowledge, ready to continue creating homes of quality and integrity for our NZ clients.

Our name Kurio, is a play on the words curio (a rare, unusual, or intriguing object) and curated (discovering, collecting, organising beautiful things) with the K as our signature unexpected twist. Kurio is a reflection of our design ethos; Spaces designed to Live Distinctively.
