Fashion designer Karen Walker's home

Fashion and homewares designer Karen Walker’s home in downtown Auckland is an oasis of calm.

Kitchen The kitchen is the hub between dining, casual living and outdoor zones at the back of the home. “This is another point in my life where you get that contrast: the home looks incredibly neat, but you open a cupboard… whoa!” says Karen.

Kitchen storage Suitably slick, the kitchen provides the serenity Karen craves. “We owe it to having storage – there’s just a ton of space for hiding things,” she says.

Outdoor living Large windows provide unrestricted viwes to the expansive pool.

Pool Tropical plants surround the clear water of the swimming pool.
