This is the second kitchen Toni Roberts has now designed and managed the fabrication of for us over the last 10 years. It is located in an second-story, eastern-suburb apartment that was very dated and needed to be totally gutted. There were some difficult challenges of working within fixed building structures and the kitchen space was small and constrained. Having Toni’s expertise on board provided us with confidence and options when designing our kitchen. We got the functionality of a working kitchen, technical knowledge of products and their purpose, what is good quality and enduring, an eye for detail and execution, and a creativity we love. She also draws on her architectural background to enhance the flow and connection with adjoining rooms. What worked well yet again was the communication process at each stage with Toni and her colleague Julie. They listened to our needs and lifestyle, identified what we needed, complemented those needs with new ideas, proposed beautiful products to choose from and provided a quality check of the final kitchen and bar in the factory and on site. Toni helped steer us stress-free through the whole project. The final result is stunning. Every day we are wowed by what we have achieved and how wonderful it looks and truly functions. How good is that! Stuart and Maree Shepherd 12 February 2021

Toni Roberts designed me a richly textured, beautiful kitchen in keeping with my living and dining areas, resulting in a unified whole. She accomplished this feat by carefully considering my living and dining room furniture, colour palette and furnishings, alongside several oil paintings and objects that had special memories. Toni also investigated how I operated in the kitchen and what I liked. At all times, we worked collaboratively on the kitchen project with different options discussed. Taking cues from my wooden sideboard, chest and dining chairs, Toni reflected their design in the kitchen cabinetry by using wooden cabinetry at the end of the galley kitchen and a classic herringbone floor as transition features from kitchen to living area. Effective lighting was used to highlight a special picture and a carving. From a 30-year-old basic, washed-out kitchen, the result is transformational, giving me a kitchen that is a pleasure to work in. It is highly functional with many features such as a lazy Susan, a spice drawer, and microwave placed at a suitable height–a reflection of Toni’s attention to detail. Toni also designed my powder room, laundry and bathroom, each of which reflect her creative flair and unique approach to producing high quality designs that are sympathetic to the character of the home and client. It was a pleasure to work with Toni and her team.

When it came to renovating our large dated kitchen and family area in our French Provincial country home, I did a lot of research into kitchen designers. This wasn't my first rodeo so to speak - I knew exactly what I wanted and I needed someone with the vision and style to help me achieve it! I found that in Toni. She quickly cottoned onto my aesthetic (classic but contemporary) and her perfectionist and detail-oriented design was amazing. I really enjoyed planning and designing my dream kitchen with Toni and her team, and I really appreciated her expertise and knowledge. It also helped that she only uses the best - products and people. Toni shows enthusiasm and passion for her job and gets excited about finding a beautiful product or item to make a design just perfect. My project went off without a hitch, she was a great communicator and problem-solver, and I couldn't be happier with the end result - a beautiful French styled kitchen and family room that definitely has the WOW factor. My one regret is that I don't have any more kitchens to work on with Toni!

After spending hours pouring over beautiful kitchens on Houzz I realised that a few that I liked in NZ were designed by the same person . . . Toni! I gave her a call and so enjoyed the enthusiasm Toni showed for my ideas that I look no further. I gave Toni access to my ‘kitchens’ folder on Houzz and she was able to very quickly get a sense of my style. Toni was brilliant to work with and I loved the real sense of collaboration there was between us. Toni picked up on my individuality and the importance of this to me and was able to suggest great design touches to reflect this. I found that the experience Toni brings and the knowledge she has of different components within a kitchen streamlined the decision making processes around materials and design options, and you knew that whatever you were choosing, the decision wouldn’t be a bad one. There are too many magical touches in Toni’s design to list them all but a couple of standouts were the special little cubby hole for my dog’s food and water bowls – no tripping over pet bowls in this kitchen – and the special ‘laundry drawer’ which works brilliantly in conjunction with my laundry cupboard (housing my washing machine and dryer). I also love the big circular feature door handles that really give the kitchen its identity. My kitchen is the envy of all my friends who not only love the way it looks but are extremely jealous of the huge amount of storage Toni was able to wring out of the space. I am loving cooking up a storm in my beautiful new kitchen and it brings a smile to my face every day. Thank you Toni!

We met Toni at one of her seminars and so loved her enthusiasm for kitchen design, she was the only designer we talked to about our project. Toni designed our kitchen-dining area and also spaces for our home organisation, drinks/bar, laundry and bathroom all of which have totally changed our family living and entertaining. We knew the overall style and function that we wanted from our spaces and Toni interpreted our general concepts perfectly, presenting us with options for surfaces, hardware and appliances that we love, taking the hassle out of what could be endless choices. We couldn't be happier with how everything turned out. Toni’s attention to detail was impressive! We really appreciate that all of our appliances, pots, plates, trays etc have their dedicated spaces so that every last centimeter of storage is used effectively, and it is now very easy to keep our spaces clean! Toni was also able to recommend a draughtsman and builder-team who she has worked with for many years which made the entire renovation go really smoothly.

We met Toni (by pure chance) at the Auckland Home Show in September 2015. At the time, she was already booked out till the following year 2016. We’re weren’t in a hurry so we waited and then promptly forgot all about it until she contacted us in February to start the consultation process. I have never met such an efficient well organised person! Toni has thought about everything and her attention to detail is impressive. We are both busy people and I am not the type of person to hunt around for tiles and door handles, that’s what I get someone else to do. Toni has worked out what suits us and presented us with options that have worked, it has been a smooth and painless process to get the kitchen designed and built. It is now just over year since the kitchen was finished and I still stand in my kitchen and feel like I’m in a new show home. A year later, there is actually nothing in the kitchen that I feel needs to change or should have been done differently. My favourite little things are the 5 pullout rubbish bins (yes 5) – a big bin for blue-bin bulk recycling, and 4 small bins (2 up, 2 down) for plastic bags storage, soft plastics recycling, general rubbish and then last bin I use for the onions and potatoes. Recycling is a real priority to us so having the specific space in the kitchen has made it so easy to do now. I also love the specially measured space for my cake mixers and food processor (a breeze to use) and having lots of plugs and USB sockets in accessible places. I have referred some friends to Toni and they are also very happy with their new kitchen.

Toni designed our kitchen 4 years ago now and I am still grateful everyday. She sat and talked with us for hours about how we use our kitchen, who is in it, what we like to eat, how we have our coffee etc, so she could plan for a design that is so clever that we could never be satisfied with imperfection again. There is NO WAY anyone in your usual kitchen store will come up with what Toni offers. She thinks to ask, where do your pets get fed, what time of the day and how large is their food storage. This is a level of insight worth paying for. Never again have we tripped over cats in the kitchen, or resorted to 20kg bags of dog food being stored in inconvenient parts of the house. I also appreciated that she doesn't try for "one size fits all". I didn't envisage a scullery working for us and once we spoke neither did she. But everyone else in the industry was determined we needed one for all manner of reasons, all of which seemed to come back to "because that's what everyone is doing now".

We are very happy with our new kitchen. Toni Roberts along with Julie Jenkins of Kitchen Architecture are very much into detail which gave us a lot of comfort in such an important and intricate process, given we hadn’t renovated before. We worked together to come up with an end result that works well for us and our home. Also, their choice of cabinetry, Corian and timber suppliers were excellent with their work being of fantastic quality. The finished product is a great layout with a place for everything. The look is more modern yet still feels like ours and it’s so nice that the little irritations of our old kitchen, are no more. Christmas entertaining was a breeze. Fiona and Chris, Stanmore Bay
