Katrina helped me with a design concept for our lounge when we were looking to invest in a new lounge suite and some chairs. It’s quite a major piece of furniture and we just didn’t know what colour we should get (especially since we’ll probably have it for the next 20 years!)
Katrina did a colour palette and recommendations for us which we went with. The colour she suggested would not have been one we thought would work in our house. But she was right on the money and we love it.
Great style and super easy to work with. Thx so much Kat.
Tracey M.

Deciding to redecorate our 100yr old kauri house was a daunting task, and asking an interior designer to assist me was the best decision I ever made. Kat has been invaluable with assisting in decision making from fabric for curtains to lighting for every room in the house. Thank you Kat for all your amazing ideas, I would have been lost without you.

Covet and Crave Interior Design assisted us with a lounge refresh. Katrina provided advice on layout, furniture, colour and window furnishings. In particular we had been struggling with the window furnishings, but thanks to Katrina we have ended up with the most beautiful natural linen curtains and blinds which I absolutely love! We did not have to do any of the measuring, ordering or installation – it was all taken care of. I found Katrina to be professional, approachable and easy to talk to and I love her style – very on trend. I would definitely use the services of Covet and Crave again!

I wanted to find a new rug for our lounge, and after looking around for ages and not finding anything, I decided to contact Katrina and ask for her help. She came around to our home, and was able to give me an idea of the size of rug I should get and then we discussed and looked at samples and colours. She gave me insights into rugs I hadn’t thought of, and the one we chose I absolutely love. Even on a trip to Auckland, she brought back more samples for me to see, which was awesome. It was a decision that I never once regretted, and would definitely recommend Katrina for any of your decor or colour decisions, whether you are building or renovating. Super friendly and super talented

Katrina provided the interior design service for our new build. This included interior colours, tiles, curtains, feature lighting and kitchen design. Katrina provided an awesome professional service which has culminated in a fantastic design which we are extremely happy with. We couldn’t have achieved this on our own. We would not hesitate to recommend Katrina to anyone and have already done so. Having an interior designer took the pressure off us and ensured we achieved the design we were looking for. Katrina is extremely helpful and has assisted us throughout the build.
