Manhattan comes to Wynyard Quarter

Recently showcased in HOME magazine, this exquisitely remodelled apartment suggests sophistication and a Manhattan aesthetic, harmonising spatial design with premium finishes. Designed by Amy Hendry and Claire Paterson of Four Walls Architecture, the residence represents a benchmark in boutique urban living, where every square inch has been intentionally repurposed to create a one-bedroom apartment without equal.

Upon entry, the hallway sets a refined tone with bespoke white lacquered cabinetry set against the warm texture of Vida Space Vida Plank timber flooring. This seamless cabinetry extends into the open plan kitchen/living/dining area, ensuring a sense of visual continuity and flow throughout the interior.

The kitchen has undergone a comprehensive redesign, now wrapping the south and eastern walls to effectively double the usable workspace. A premium Falcon Nexus oven provides a professional-grade culinary focal point. Innovative 'floating' cabinetry along the eastern windows maximises storage capacity without compromising the apartment’s sense of openness.

As a corner residence, the apartment is bathed in natural light. This is complemented by a sophisticated, custom lighting plan designed to evoke a tranquil atmosphere. Custom-integrated lighting, including Flos Glo-Ball lamps from ECC, creates an immediate sense of warmth and luxury on entry. Architectural lighting has been tailored specifically to the proportions of each space to enhance the mood at any hour.

The redesign addresses the traditional constraints of apartment living by prioritising high-utility storage solutions. The bathroom has been completely reconstructed with high-end fixtures, new tiling, integrated lighting, and wall-to-wall mirrored cabinetry, amplifying the sense of space. The bedroom is a sanctuary featuring a full wall of integrated joinery, including wardrobes, drawers, linen storage, and bespoke bookshelves.

The expansive north-facing balcony functions as a secondary living area, equipped with integrated infrared heating for year-round comfort. The property is further enhanced by a secure car park featuring an extra large overhead storage locker and a dedicated EV charging station, completing this unparalleled urban package.
