Taiharuru House

A Modern Home Brought to Life With Architectural Craftsmanship

Completed in 2023, this contemporary residence designed by Mandeno Design and constructed by Antonio Builders is a stunning example of modern New Zealand architecture. Set against sweeping coastal views, the home blends natural light, seamless indoor outdoor flow and refined material choices to create a peaceful, inviting living environment. Farrell Concrete was proud to contribute to the project through the creation of a high quality polished concrete floor finish that anchors the design beautifully.

Premium Polished Concrete to Elevate the Interior

The flooring throughout the main living spaces was crafted using Farrell Concrete’s advanced grinding and polishing processes, resulting in a smooth, reflective surface that enhances the home’s open plan layout. The exposed aggregate finish adds depth and texture, perfectly complementing the bold kitchen island and the neutral architectural palette. With large windows and sliding doors framing the landscape, the polished concrete floor helps bounce natural light around the space, amplifying the home's bright and spacious feel.

Designed to Perform and Built to Last

Polished concrete is a standout choice for high use residential environments, offering long term durability, low maintenance and a premium aesthetic. For this project, Farrell Concrete ensured a consistent, even finish across all living zones, providing a hard wearing surface suitable for everyday family life without compromising on style. The result is a floor that feels both robust and refined, tying the architectural elements together with simplicity and precision.

Seamless Collaboration for an Exceptional Result

This project brought together the strengths of Mandeno Design, Antonio Builders and Farrell Concrete to achieve a cohesive and beautifully executed home. Farrell Concrete is proud to have contributed flooring that supports the architectural vision while remaining functional, timeless and visually striking. The final result is a contemporary residence that celebrates quality craftsmanship and thoughtful design.
