SETTING THE TONE
For the entranceway, Sophie wanted a wow factor with a European/Middle Eastern influence, so she chose D’segni Macro 4 Angolo tiles from Tile Space and had them laid both outside and inside the front door. The House of Travertine poolside tiles (left) were imported from Greece.
Standing outside the home of Sophie Riddle and Dan Adams, with its views of paddocks, towering trees and bushland and the sounds of native birds, it’s hard to believe you’re just minutes from the bustling suburb of Albany and 20 minutes from central Auckland. The tranquil property feels more calm country than busy city, and that’s exactly why the couple love it.
