The social gallery: Homes of this Decade launch

Last week, we gathered to celebrate the launch of Homes of this Decade with an intimate evening of connection, conversation, and celebration at the stunning Studio Italia showroom in Auckland.

The night featured an insightful panel hosted by Federico Monsalve, with Richard Naish (RTA Studio), Lance Herbst (Herbst Architects), and Gary Lawson (Stevens Lawson Architects) reflecting on a decade of residential design and exploring what’s next — from sustainability to AI and everything in between.

Exquisite wines by Jules Taylor added the perfect touch to a night of design and delight.
