Love what you do, and you'll never do a days work in your life. In the case of Kirstin and Rodney, owners of Kitchen Studio, New Plymouth, it couldn't be a more accurate statement.

When kitchen designer Kirstin and partner Rod (craftsman builder) are not transforming kitchens in Taranaki, they are busy transforming houses. Kirstin says, "Both Rod and I love the transformation process, to see something old, broken and tired, suddenly become transformed into a thing of beauty is the best feeling possible".

The couple was attracted to kitchen design, because for most families; it is the most important room in the home and, with outstanding design, can have the most significant impact on the value of your property.

Kirstin added, "The kitchen is the heart of the home, so it requires a lot of love, care and attention to create the best results.
