Private Home | Auckland, NZ
Hallway | Dining | Living
My clients in New Zealand asked me to design rugs for three main areas of their new Auckland apartment. Using my Artisan process, I curated three bespoke rugs with a clear brief: to create a calming, zen-like sanctuary for the couple. The Moa rug in the hallway fades from dark to light, making the entry feel soft and welcoming. In the dining area, Wilton adds color and movement, tying in perfectly with the sage chairs and dark wood table. And in the lounge, with its views over Auckland City, we reworked a Te Aro design to bring in their love of retro while still matching the apartment’s palette. Each decision, from color to texture to pattern, was made to ensure that the space felt both personal and cohesive, allowing these rugs to serve as the foundation of a thoughtfully layered home.
Empire State Building | New York, NY
Reception
Collaborating with Fogarty Finger, two rugs were produced for a commercial pantry and reception area located on the sky-high 68th floor of NYC’s iconic Empire State Building. While straightforward in form and design, their production takes on a more bespoke approach - hand-tufted, 100% New Zealand wool with a tip-shear loop pile in the field, the burgundy lines slightly raised and contrasted by a cut-pile border.
Private Home | Harlem, NY
Dining room | Entry
Method + Moxie and their client decided on area rugs in warm, neutral hues for the entryway and a seating nook.

Each are hand-tufted in NZ wool, for refinement and durability.
