When your holiday home is often rented out to happy-go-lucky groups, you want a distinctive combination of good looks and bounce-back hardiness. Alex and Corban are known for their light-as-air yet purposeful aesthetic and, in this update, they went for a classic-contemporary vibe that would appeal to the design-conscious traveller.
Step into the kitchen and see it in action: sleek Laminam benchtops in Supernova Luna White are clean and elegant against cabinetry in Melteca Parisian Oak in the Organic finish. “We originally thought we might like to use a deep beige like Moccasin or a neutral like French Cream on the cabinetry to be safe,” explains Alex. That plan flew out the window as soon as they set eyes on the Parisian Oak. “The tone is warm and the timber-grain Organic finish looks very realistic,” says Alex.
To top it all, slender 12mm Laminam porcelain benches not only play stylish host to guests but are real-life-ready for spills and thrills. Red-wine stains be damned! Unlike some other materials, the porcelain repels these circular reminders of fun gatherings, citrus will not etch the surface and it’s heat-resistant, too.
Not to be outdone in the she’ll-be-right stakes, Melteca cabinetry has the bach basics covered — this iconic brand has been made in New Zealand for 40 years. Melteca won’t mark or chip the way timber panelling might and is easy to clean — just in time for the next holidaymakers who come to enjoy this easy-going coastal paradise.
