THE STARS ALIGN

THE AVERAGE DINING TABLE LASTS FOR AROUND TWO DECADES IN MOST HOMES, SO IT’S NO SURPRISE THAT CHOOSING THE RIGHT ONE IS NOT AN EASY TASK. DANISH FURNITURE BRAND BOCONCEPT UNDERSTANDS THIS NEED FOR TIMELESS DESIGN THAT’S BUILT TO LAST.

While smaller soft furnishings and decorative items can be regularly updated, a dining table and chairs are a long-term commitment to support a household through years of changing needs.

A period of change for all of us in the last two years has led to redefining our spaces and the way we use them. Time with friends and family feels more precious, and the items that we cherish have a deeper meaning.

BoConcept’s new collection features the best of Danish style with its expertly crafted designs and timeless shapes.

Purposeful design

The blend of comfort, natural curves, clean lines and honest materials in the Hauge dining table stand out with its thin, elegant and timeless expression. The wooden details underline Scandinavian design heritage and craftsmanship. With its contemporary design, sleek yet sturdy base and incredible comfort, it is perfectly complemented by the Hauge dining chair.

The Madrid dining table features sleek lines and organic shapes, coming together in a floating design. The minimal look and clean colours make this table very easy to combine with many different types of dining chairs.

The luxurious minimalist aesthetic of these dining settings is present throughout the new BoConcept collection, with pieces created to meet our changing lifestyle needs and habits, such as working from home and spending more time in multifunctional spaces.

When it comes to choosing dining furniture with longevity in mind, the simple beauty of timeless, expertly crafted pieces will last a lifetime.

IN THESE PAGES WE UNCOVER SOME FRESH IDEAS FOR GARDEN LIVING WITH LANDSCAPING, ENERGY SOLUTIONS AND STYLING INSPIRATION TO MAXIMISE YOUR OUTDOOR SPACE AND CREATE AN INVITING OASIS.

Landscape architects are experts at designing gardens that are both beautiful and functional. The team at Kamo Marsh begins every client relationship by considering each client’s budget, garden size and personal requirements.

Based in Christchurch and Queenstown, Kamo Marsh has built up a diverse portfolio of projects throughout the South Island and loves collaborating with the client to achieve a place that’s perfect for them.

“We are involved in the planning, design and project management of a wide variety of commercial and residential property projects,” says Emily, landscape architect. “There are several things we look at when we start to design a garden. But most importantly, it has to work for the client’s lifestyle.”

Emily has noticed a significant shift in clients wanting to make positive climatefriendly choices and greener standards. Many clients now consider the importance of planting to attract more wildlife and the significance of using sustainable resources which complement the environment.

“Often the people I work with feel a real sense of pride when they are working in harmony with nature and the environment in their own backyard,” says Emily.

This flair for working in unison with the environment demonstrates Emily’s expertise and enables her to achieve the very best from a garden, irrespective of its shape, size or aspect. “One of our skills is understanding different environments and knowing which plants and arrangements will work well within them.”

Spring and early summer are inspirational times as these seasons provide the opportunity to see gardens with fresh growth, and often in full bloom.

For the best results, Emily recommends preparing a landscape plan for the whole garden to create cohesion throughout the property. By doing so, you create long-term added value.
