Feature Home: Perfectly Polished and Practical
Posted October 7, 2024
Our most recent feature home, tucked away on a quiet tree lined street in Papanui is petite but packed full of quality finishes and timelessly stylish materials. Designed with busy individuals in mind, this home is highly practical and low maintenance with a clean and minimalistic aesthetic. Let’s take a closer look!
Stepping into this brand new home you are welcomed into a spacious and light open plan living area. The use of cathedral ceilings and gable windows in this space make this home feel effortlessly bigger, so much so that you wouldn’t be the only one fooled into thinking it’s bigger than its modest 120m2 floorplan! Adding to this sense of spaciousness is the use of Paradise Laminate flooring by Signature Floors. Boasting an extra wide 236mm plank, Paradise is a simple yet stylish way to make your room or space look and feel larger and more open. What’s more, these laminate planks offer incredible scratch, stain and water resistance – they’re perfect for busy lives and homes. Paradise is also easy to clean making it a low maintenance and easy care option; it really does tick all of the boxes! The use of the colour Malabar Oak introduces a lovely ambience and warmth to the space, especially when paired with the fresh white walls and kitchen. Laminate flooring offers exceptional value for money – giving you the character and high end look of timber without the high end price tag. In this feature home it works beautifully, contributing to the overall minimal yet polished aesthetic.

The classic and paired back style continues in the three double bedrooms which feature Moroccan Berber carpet in Mohair by Belgotex. Made from 100% stainproof solution dyed nylon, Moroccan Berber is a loop pile carpet that effortlessly blends practicality and style. Loop pile carpet offers excellent durability and appearance retention meaning your carpet will continue looking good as new for years to come. Having made a big comeback over the last 5 years, we’re confident in saying that when it comes to carpet the loop is here to stay! Stylistically, textured carpets create a tactile experience by adding subtle depth and interest to a room. In the bedrooms of this feature home, Moroccan Berber loop pile carpet provides the perfect contrast in both colour and texture to the white walls. It also creates a sense of cosy calm, designating the bedrooms as spaces to retreat and rest.

Moving into the garage the practicality doesn’t stop. The use of garage carpet here immediately makes it a more functional and multi-use space. With garage carpet, your garage becomes more than just a place to park your car; it can be transformed into a gym, rumpus room, man cave - the possibilities are endless! We always advise our customers include garage carpet in their flooring plans; it’s a small investment that provides practicality and incredible value for money!
