Projects | Entrance Design | Interior design on your terms

Entrance Design's job was to bring this living room from cluttered and busy to contemporary calm—and we think we delivered. By curating a refined palette, streamlining the layout, and incorporating pieces from local suppliers and artists, we created a space that feels both modern and meaningful. The result is a beautifully balanced interior that speaks to simplicity, comfort, and considered design.

We were brought in at the end of this exciting build with interiors designed by Izzard Interiors. Our role was to add the finishing touches with drapes in all the bedrooms and living spaces of this stunning penthouse. We also sourced the dining and bar stools from Stellar through Backhouse Interiors.

This stunning salon grew from a completely blank space of concrete and more concrete! Glass pertitions were added along with floor to ceiling sheers for privacy and a touch of luxury. The furniture and decor were carefully curated to create a feeling of relaxation and sophistication.

A stunning bungalow beautifully renovated by Evolution Builders. Our clients wanted to incorporate antiques and items collected during trips to Europe. The look and feel was to be contemporary but with traditional elements. The request was for an all white kitchen, which with the dark oak grey floors, the finished product is stunning.

For this project, we recovered the existing chairs in a purple velvet and sourced super comfy chairs to compliment the antique table, which we had restored. The Tom Dixon pendants finish off this space. In the second lounge, we had a sofa custom made to fit the space.

The master bedroom was the former lounge. We kept the original curtains and worked from there. The headboard is custom made to cover the old fireplace and the wallpaper from Cole and Sons pulls it all together. For the ensuite our client wanted something sleek in black and white.

We had the vanity custom made and the glass bowls were brought in by Metrix. Products were supplied by, James Dunlop, Warwick Fabrics, Apartmento, ECC, French Country, The Paper Room, and The Ivy House to name a few.

A Herne Bay new build two years in the making. The result is a modern, edgy and light filled family home. We had fun with the bathrooms, mixing things up giving the en-suite a spa like feel, the kids bathroom a functional but interesting look and a dramatic powder room. The kitchen is finished in an oak veneer with l Dekton bench tops. The back splash is a one of a kind finished in Apiani tiles by Artedomus. The tv room has been painted in a dark grey on both the ceilings and walls and finished with velevt drapes to create the perfect movie watching atmosphere. Venluree took care of all the blinds and curtains, Artedomus and Tile Imports provided the tiles, Waterware provided all of the bathroomware, James Dunlop supplied our favourite Laconia Air and Citta and Weave Home provided us with the photo shoot accessories.

A grand old villa brought to life again. The brief from our client was to have a modern open plan house keeping traditional elements where possible. We also needed to incorporate their love of mid century design, utilising existing pieces of furniture. The house was rebuilt from the ground up, retaining and preserving the heritage facade. The soaring ceilings and kauri floors still remain. Artedomus supplied the bathroom tiles, Middle Earth supplied the kitchen tiles. Other suppliers include: EMD Kitchens, Dawson & Co, Furtex, Warwick, James Dunlop, The Fire Dept, Traditional Taps, Harvey Norman, Lightplan to name a few!
