Welbanks Semi Update

We are ecstatic,  and also sorry,  to inform you that all of our semi-detached homes in the Welbanks subdivision are now sold.  We are currently finishing the last unit for a great local couple and their daughter.  I think they are really going to enjoy the Welbanks community.

Here are a couple pictures of Lot 61 and 63, the last 2 units we completed (because I have really been slacking with finish pictures...sorry about that!)

Lot 61:

Lot 63:

Hello Strangers!

It has been far too long since our last post (thanks to John for pointing that out)!  We will try to be less tardy in the future!

We've got lots to show you since our last post...hopefully we will have photos updated on the website soon...but, for us, our current clients come first ... social media is a close second though.  Check out Instagram (@kleurdesign and @hickoryhomes) for snippets of current work.

The Modern Barn (or "that big red barn house" to locals!):
 It is the talk of Wellington, people love it or hate it...I love it, those red architectural panels are fantastic (and so is the lovely lady who lives there).
Here are some pictures of the custom interior details in the space.... this was a FUN house to design, source and build.  I just love it when clients are up for anything! We hope Karin enjoys living in it as much as we enjoyed building it.

Morgan Road:

We started a new home on Morgan road in June. This isn't one of our typical design/build projects, but we are enjoying it none the less!  These clients came to us with plans and finishes and we are just bringing their plans to life. At this point we are taking it to the interior finishes stage and the homeowners are finishing themselves.  

Stay tuned

Welbanks Subdivision - Late Fall Update

After a bit of a delay we got our client into her home in Welbanks Meadows! We love how all the finishes turned out.  Especially her fireplaces!

The units across the road from her are moving along as scheduled and we are working with their respective owners to create interiors that are suited to their style and taste!

Here is a little preview of some of those interior selections...

Wellbanks Meadows #4 - Finishing

We are in the end stages of another build in the Welbanks Subdivision in Picton.  We will be starting the next set of Semi-Detatched units this week.
The new owners of this semi decided to go with lots of different colours, and I think the wall colours in the living room co-ordinate nicely with the tile flooring in the kitchen area.

Cant wait to show you the finished product in a couple weeks!

Progress in 2015

We have started 2015 with lots of work to keep us and our guys busy.  We are in Picton building our second set of Semi-Detached units in the Welbanks Subdivision.  We have one of these units pre-sold and we are going to use the other side as our Model  unit....although there have been lots of interested buyers, so it may end up sold before the spring!

(You'll have to excuse me, it was -24 this morning ...so I didn't get out of the car!)

We are also in the final stages of a custom house located on Lake Concecon.  The fireplace and flooring are being completed.  The kitchen cabinetry and built-in's beside the fireplace will be installed next week and this house will start to look like a real home.

(The guys were camera shy.... hustling out of this shot leaving their tools behind them!)

On the other side of the County in Waupoos we have a custom house all framed in and the insulation is well underway.  Our materials are ordered and finishing should start in the next few weeks. (I'll get pictures of that one soon...it was too cold this morning!)

Speaking of Tiles....

So.....we were recently on a supplier website and saw our own work!  We are going to choose to be flattered about it!
Check it out HERE....you'll recognise it from our Gallery Page (hint: look under Cressy)

Lake Concecon - Fireplace Concept

We've been pretty lucky to work with clients who appreciate the advise and expertise that we bring to the table.  We always have lots of opinions about what "WE" would do with a space and sometimes people are on the same wavelength as us, and sometimes they pictured something totally different!  It's fun for us when clients decide to go forward with the designs and ideas that we offer, as is the case with this great fireplace concept.

Soon this wall ..... (excuse the mess... I took this picture in the middle of the insulation stage!)

Will look a little something like this!
