full house design.
At Yellowfox, we create bespoke interior designs for full home renovations and new builds across Auckland, Tauranga and Hamilton. We consider everything from the overall look and flow of your home to colours, materials, finishes, cabinetry and furnishings, creating spaces that are practical, cohesive and beautiful to live in.
what this includes…
drawings
Detailed interior and exterior floor plans and elevations that show how each space will come together, from room layouts and cabinetry to key design details and your overall colour scheme. These drawings provide a clear visual guide for your builder and trades, making the design easy to understand and helping your project move through construction with confidence.
specification
A complete record of your chosen colours, materials, finishes, cabinetry and hardware throughout your home. The specification keeps all of your interior and exterior design selections organised in one clear document, making it easy for you, your builder and suppliers to understand and follow the design throughout your project.
3d visuals
Realistic, full-colour images that bring your full house interior design to life, helping you visualise the layout, colours, materials, finishes and key design details before construction begins. They give you a clear picture of how the different spaces will come together and flow throughout your home.
our approach…
We start by understanding you, your home and how you want to live. Whether you are planning a full home renovation or a new build, we talk through your lifestyle, needs, ideas and the spaces you would like to create. We also review your architectural plans, existing finishes and any inspiration you have collected.
Creating a considered design, we develop the overall interior design of your home, looking at the layout, flow and functionality of each space. From kitchens and bathrooms to bedrooms, living areas and custom cabinetry, we consider how everything works together. We then bring in colours, materials, finishes, feature lighting and hardware to create a cohesive look throughout your home.
Bringing your design to life. Once we have developed the concept, we present the design through detailed floor plans, elevations, 3D colour renders and material selections. This allows you to see how your home will look and function before construction begins. We then work through your feedback and refine the design with you.
Bringing all the details together. Once your design is resolved, we prepare the final drawings and specifications, documenting the colours, materials, finishes, cabinetry, hardware and other key details throughout your home. We can also work alongside your architect, builder and other trades, giving them a clear set of information to take the design through to construction.
