With an experienced eye, attention to detail, and foreplanning, Yellowfox ensure
the interiors of this light, open home are finished to winning effect
Above: Everything about this new
home on Waiheke Island is atuned

Interior design and spacial planning
specialist Yellowfox created an easy

opened up, only a clear glass

create a welcoming ambience indoors and out.

and crisp white to set off a summer home that
lends itself to ‘fun in the sun’,” says Donnelly.
The durable kitchen, in lacquer and veneer,
features a slender stone benchtop which offers
a feminine line to the overall masculine colour
