    (Manor Chevron Oak replacement)
    Premium Manor Chevron Oak packs a punch in this Remuera renovation.

    For a family returning to New Zealand after years in New York, Bureaux created a home that honours both worlds. This fully renovated Arts and Crafts cottage pairs Big Apple elegance with Auckland ease, grounded by Forté's Premium Manor Oak flooring (now Haven Tokyo) in a classic Chevron layout. The timber establishes continuity across interiors layered with bespoke joinery, statement lighting, and bursts of rich color—all detailed with precision.
