A Fresh New Chapter | The Lodge Transformation

Set high above the bay with sweeping views, The Lodge has been a place of family memories for many years. Now, with grown children and a new phase of life underway, an interior designers much-loved home is re-imagined —creating a stylish, practical sanctuary that reflects their busy lives and deep connection to the land.

The design needed to weave together existing cherished furnishings with fresh, timeless elements, creating a refined yet relaxed atmosphere. Every detail, from the rich textures to the carefully chosen palette, needed to honour the home's history while embracing a new chapter.

One of the standout features in the transformed lounge is the flooring. Bremworth’s Te Aroha wool carpet, was selected for its luxurious texture and deep, grounding brass tone. This premium New Zealand wool carpet brings warmth, softness, and a touch of understated glamour to the lodge-inspired living space.

With a striking central fireplace, raked ceilings, and exposed timber rafters, the lounge is a space to kick back and unwind. The Te Aroha carpet enhances the room’s tactile appeal, offering underfoot comfort that is both practical and beautiful—perfect for unwinding at the end of a long day.

The renewed palette of moss, earth, and brass flows seamlessly throughout the home, creating a cohesive story across each space. In the master suite and rest spaces, a soft, textured loop pile wool carpet; Bremworth’s Galet in colour Dolomite adds to the sense of retreat, providing both beauty and resilience underfoot—essential for everyday living. Dolomites unique colour provides a neutral foundation for each of the bedrooms within the home and the furnishings bring in the accents of the palette tones.
