Stainless Steel from Perrin & Rowe
Perrin & Rowe sinks are built of rigid high-quality stainless steel that is expertly cut and welded. The sides and base have been carefully sculpted to give the aesthetic of a zero-radius sink, whilst allowing for easy cleaning and drainage. The quality steel resists staining while the bottom boasts a diamond shaped base that assists in drainage towards the waste – meaning less time spent cleaning the messy dregs from the corners of your sink.
Perrin & Rowe stainless steel sinks are not just any sink. They are a fully insulated bowl providing acoustic deadening and heatretention. Gone are the days of disturbance from late-night dishwashing enthusiasts. These sinks will also retain the heat in your water longer with the full wrap of insulation, for extra squeakyclean dishes.
A range of sizes allows you to mix and match to suit your needs. Choose your main sink based on the size of your oven trays, with a second sink beside for symmetry or positioned elsewhere as a smaller accessory sink.
Perrin & Rowe sinks are available from In Residence, www.inres.co.nz




We've got 90 ABS edgetape matches for you
The beauty of a benchtop isn’t just what you see on the top, but also how it’s edged - which can make or break a project. At Laminex New Zealand we know rolled edges are not as in demand as they used to be. Instead we see more people opting to select a clean, squared-edged look which is more in keeping with design trends. Therefore, we set out and invested to source the best edgetapes from Germany to match, as precisely as possible, our laminate range.
The journey has taken longer than expected, however we're excited to announce that we have 90 ABS edgetape matches for the Laminex Laminate range (that is 80% of the total range!); leaving just some laminates such as magnetic writeable unmatched as it’s proved impossible to get the right quality.
These ABS edgetapes have great depth of colour, are soft yet durable and impact resistant – providing that finishing touch of an almost invisible join, to a beautiful benchtop. They are mostly available in 53mm width and 1mm thickness, with an option of being unglued or pre-glued.
For a full list of the edgetape matches that are available, view page 63 of the Laminex Laminate brochure or the availability guide at Laminex.co.nz, under ‘Trade and Specifier Resources > Technical Resources.
Black Marble
Create a stunning & timeless marble benchtop from Stone & Joinery Solutions
This black marble benchtop is putting an interesting spin on the classic white marble counterspace, making the island stand out and becoming the focal point and main feature of this minimalistic kitchen. The black and white colour scheme that was used also compliments and enhances the simplicity and natural beauty of the stone.
This project was completed in the Viaduct, where the designer and owner wanted to match the modern and elegant flair with this contemporary kitchen. By choosing closed cupboard spaces, a sleek finish is accomplished, and the attention can naturally focus on the wide and stunning kitchen island, the star of the show.

The Nero Marquina Venato Honed Marble is a high quality, deep black marble with a delicate inverse bright white veining, which promotes an essential elegancy to any space it is used in. This is one of the most internationally recognized black marbles and originates from Spain, which the high demand in supply for interior designers and architects can confirm. The uniqueness of this kitchen is also the biggest feature of the marble stone, since no slab is exactly like another. And by choosing a marble countertop over other options, you can know that you will have an incredible natural product that will be timelessly elegant.
