It is always a pleasure to work with returning clients on a new project. Having previously completed a significant renovation of their Auckland family home, Trinity was delighted to be invited to create the interiors for their new beach house in beautiful Whangamata.
Designed by Brendon Gordon, the home was conceived as a relaxed, functional and family-friendly retreat, with the flexibility to accommodate guests and extended family throughout the year. The architecture maximises views across the reserve to the beach, while generous glazing brings an abundance of natural light into the interiors.
The design is grounded in a timeless palette of natural materials and warm tones, creating a relaxed foundation that complements the coastal setting. Furnishings were carefully selected to introduce texture, comfort and a distinctly laid-back beach feel, while maintaining the refined and considered aesthetic the clients had established in their previous home.
The result is a welcoming beach retreat designed for easy living, from quiet weekends with family to larger gatherings with friends, with a strong connection to the landscape and the relaxed rhythm of Whangamata life.
