Picturesque Perfect | Design Builders

Sam Perrin of Design Builders and his team were asked to add an extension and carry out some renovations to an existing home in Hamurana, which is nestled in a rural New Zealand setting and surrounded by beautiful gardens. We take a look at their Master Builders House of the Year entry for 2022.

Category: Bunnings Renovation $750,000 - $1.5 million

Builder: Design Builders

Carpet: Feltex Carpets - Salisbury in colour Solstice

Timber flooring: Godfrey Hirst - Oak Elegance in colour Coffee


The project morphed from an extension into a full-scale renovation. The home has been cleverly brought right up to date and now has a warm, welcoming feel, with several delightful indoor and outdoor living spaces for the home owners to enjoy.

Working alongside Steiner Interiors Gerrand Floorings provided both carpet and timber flooring for the renovation.

The carpet chosen was Feltex Carpets - Salisbury in colour Solstice.

Key notes: A chunky wool carpet that complements today’s rustic and handcrafted decorator styling, Salisbury is available in seven classic neutrals in the ancient hues of the stone age. Soft and texturally pleasing underfoot, this high low loop pile will add contrast to a range of interior design finishes and furnishings.


The timber flooring chosen was Godfrey Hirst - Oak Elegance in colour Coffee

Key notes: With a real European Oak surface, Oak Elegance provides a unique look for your home with true-to-life distinct knots and grain variation. The contemporary range of colours are all Medium Feature Grade, which offers a clean yet distinctive character in every board and every floor. Finished with a high quality German lacquer and a light brush veneer, Oak Elegance has the timeless look and feel of luxury.
