Award-winning interior design for discerning residential clients across New Zealand and beyond.
View Selected Works →Summit & Stone is a boutique studio specialising in high-end residential projects throughout New Zealand, with an international portfolio spanning Colorado, Australia, and Southeast Asia. Founded on a belief that great interior design is deeply personal, the studio works closely with each client to translate their vision into enduring, meaningful spaces.
From dramatic Queenstown lakeviews to refined Auckland estate homes, each project reflects an unwavering commitment to craftsmanship, material integrity, and considered beauty.
Summit & Stone Design is a boutique interior design studio founded by a collective of designers with a shared obsession: creating homes that feel as extraordinary as the landscapes they inhabit.
Our team brings together backgrounds spanning architecture, fine art, furniture design, and project management across residential projects in Colorado and New Zealand. We are drawn to ambitious briefs — homes where the architecture is bold, the views are extraordinary, and the client's vision deserves to be matched at every turn.
We believe the best interiors are never decorative afterthoughts. They are conceived alongside the structure itself, with every material, every junction, and every light source considered as part of a complete whole. This demands deep relationships with the makers, suppliers, and craftspeople who share our standards.
Based in Telluride, Colorado, our studio works with a select number of residential clients each year — locally in the Mountain West and internationally — ensuring each project receives the full weight of our attention.
Restraint over excess
We edit relentlessly. The best rooms know what to leave out.
Material honesty
Stone, timber, plaster, steel — used for what they are, not what they imitate.
Craft over convenience
We source from makers who still care how things are made.
Place-led design
Every project begins with where it is, not what's trending.
