    Modern Mountain Kitchen Design Featuring Viefe Brave Handles

    At Enko Group NZ, we value kitchen and interior spaces that combine thoughtful design with timeless materials. The Modern Mountain project by Iconic interior and architectural studio, led by Kaitlyn Wolfe, is a refined example of contemporary living shaped by its natural surroundings.

    Set within the dramatic landscape of Scottsdale, Arizona, this home balances strength and serenity through carefully selected textures, warm earthy tones and understated architectural detailing.

    A Modern Mountain Home Inspired by Nature

    Every material within this home has been chosen to reflect the surrounding mountain environment. Warm timber tones sit alongside cool greys and stone-inspired textures, creating a layered palette that feels grounded, calm and connected to nature.

    The contrast between raw textures and refined finishes introduces depth throughout the interior while maintaining visual cohesion. This balance of materiality and restraint gives the home a timeless quality suited to modern living.

    At Enko Group NZ, we continue to see growing interest in interiors that embrace natural materials, tactile finishes and minimalist styling without sacrificing warmth.

    Featuring Viefe Brave Matte Black Handles

    The Viefe Brave handles in matte black become a defining feature within the kitchen cabinetry. Their clean geometric form complements the strong architectural lines of the space while introducing contrast against the natural timber and stone palette.

    The matte black finish adds quiet confidence without overwhelming the design, helping maintain the calm and refined atmosphere throughout the kitchen. Both practical and visually balanced, the Brave handle supports the minimalist philosophy of the project while delivering comfortable everyday functionality.

    Its understated profile allows the surrounding materials and craftsmanship to remain the focus while still contributing texture and visual definition.

    Modern Kitchen Design with Architectural Simplicity

    The Modern Mountain project reflects a thoughtful approach to contemporary living where architecture, materials and hardware work together seamlessly. Every element feels intentional, creating spaces that encourage stillness, warmth and connection to the landscape.

    The collaboration between Iconic by Kaitlyn Wolfe and carefully selected Viefe hardware demonstrates how modern kitchen design can achieve both simplicity and character through detail and material balance.

    At Enko Group NZ, we believe premium kitchen handles and architectural hardware play an essential role in shaping the overall experience of a space. The Viefe Brave handle is a strong example of minimalist hardware contributing to refined and timeless interior design.

  • The Viefe Flapp touch in a warm, character-rich kitchen

    Warm Oak Kitchen Design Featuring Viefe Flapp Handles

    At Enko Group NZ, we appreciate kitchen spaces where materials, texture and functionality work together naturally. This beautifully crafted kitchen by Inova Cuisine showcases how thoughtful hardware and refined detailing can shape a calm and welcoming environment.

    Bathed in soft natural daylight, the kitchen has been designed as more than a functional workspace. It is a carefully balanced interior where warmth, precision and understated design come together seamlessly.

    A Warm Kitchen Palette Inspired by Natural Materials

    Located in Saint-Jean-de-Luz, France, this kitchen embraces a palette grounded in texture and authenticity. Grooved oak cabinetry introduces natural movement and depth, bringing warmth and character into the space.

    Stone-inspired finishes add contrast through soft mineral textures, helping create a balanced and grounded atmosphere. The combination of timber and earthy surfaces delivers a timeless aesthetic that feels calm, tactile and comfortable to live with.

    At Enko Group NZ, we continue to see growing demand for kitchens that prioritise natural finishes, tactile materials and practical beauty.

    Featuring Viefe Flapp Oak Handles

    The Viefe Flapp handle becomes a subtle yet important design feature throughout the kitchen. Crafted in oak, its slim architectural profile integrates naturally into the cabinetry, maintaining the clean and refined appearance of the joinery.

    While visually understated, the Flapp handle delivers a tactile experience that feels comfortable and intuitive in everyday use. Its minimalist form supports the overall design philosophy of the kitchen, combining functionality with warm, human-centred detailing.

    The natural oak finish allows the handle to blend effortlessly into the cabinetry while still contributing texture and visual continuity across the space.

    Minimalist Kitchen Design with a Human Touch

    Inova Cuisine has created a kitchen that prioritises clarity, comfort and craftsmanship. Every detail feels considered, from the cabinetry proportions through to the hardware selection, resulting in a space that feels both refined and welcoming.

    This kitchen reflects a growing movement towards interiors that embrace quiet luxury, natural materials and practical simplicity. Rather than relying on excess, the design achieves impact through restraint, balance and thoughtful detailing.

    At Enko Group NZ, we believe carefully selected kitchen handles and hardware play an essential role in shaping how a space looks, feels and functions. The Viefe Flapp handle is a perfect example of understated hardware contributing meaningfully to the overall design story.

  • A kitchen where Japan meets the Mediterranean

    Japanese Mediterranean Kitchen Design Inspiration with Viefe Hardware

    At Enko Group NZ, we believe thoughtful details shape the way a kitchen feels and functions. This refined minimalist kitchen is a beautiful example of understated hardware bringing character and balance into a space. Inspired by both Japanese and Mediterranean design, the result is calm, welcoming and quietly sophisticated.

    A Kitchen Where Japan Meets the Mediterranean

    This kitchen combines the precision and restraint of Japanese interiors with the warmth and texture often found in Mediterranean homes. Dark timber cabinetry pairs naturally with brushed metal finishes and rustic tilework inspired by traditional Mediterranean ceramics. Every material has been selected to create visual harmony while maintaining practical everyday function.

    Natural surfaces, clean lines and carefully curated finishes work together to create depth without overwhelming the space. The result is a timeless kitchen design that feels balanced, intentional and connected to craftsmanship.

    Japanese and Mediterranean Design Working Together

    The beauty of this kitchen lies in its contrast. Minimalist Japanese styling introduces order, simplicity and stillness, while Mediterranean influences bring warmth, texture and organic character. Together, these elements create a space that feels modern yet lived in.

    At Enko Group NZ, we see growing interest in kitchen designs that prioritise both aesthetics and functionality. This project reflects that shift towards interiors that feel calm, tactile and enduring.

    Featuring Viefe Brooklyn Handles and Knobs

    The Viefe Brooklyn collection in brushed bronze introduces subtle warmth and structure throughout the cabinetry. Its refined profile supports the clean minimalist styling while adding texture and visual depth.

    The Brooklyn Big handle integrates seamlessly into the fridge cabinetry, helping maintain a continuous and uncluttered appearance. Meanwhile, the Brooklyn Long handle provides larger cabinet doors with confident proportions and comfortable everyday usability.

    These kitchen cabinet handles contribute to the overall balance of the design while reinforcing the understated sophistication of the space.

    Featuring Viefe Megg Walnut Hangers

    The Viefe Megg hangers in solid walnut sit naturally within the timber palette of the kitchen. Compact in scale yet rich in detail, they offer practical functionality while acting as sculptural design elements.

    The warm walnut finish complements the surrounding materials beautifully, helping reinforce the organic and grounded atmosphere throughout the kitchen.

    Featuring Viefe Low Door Stopper

    The Viefe Low door stopper in brushed cava brass may appear subtle, yet it plays an important role in maintaining the calm atmosphere of the space. Designed with a protective black rubber edge, it softens movement and reduces noise, helping create a quieter and more comfortable kitchen environment.

    It is a considered finishing detail that supports both practicality and refined design.

    Light, Texture and Balance in Kitchen Design

    This kitchen captures the balance between East and West, simplicity and warmth, texture and restraint. Its strength comes from carefully layered materials, clean geometry and functional beauty working together without excess.

    At Enko Group NZ, we continue to see designers and cabinet makers embrace kitchens that prioritise timeless materials, tactile finishes and purposeful hardware. Projects like this highlight how the right handles, accessories and finishing touches can shape the entire character of a kitchen space.

  • Wabi Sabi Handles by Metakor for Japandi Inspired Cabinet Design

    When it comes to cabinetry and interior design, details make the difference. Standardised, highly uniform handles can often feel disconnected from the warmth and character designers aim to achieve in modern interiors.

    The Wabi Sabi Collection by Metakor responds to this gap with hardware shaped by natural form, subtle asymmetry, and a calm, considered design language. Inspired by Japandi and organic interior styles, this range brings a more grounded and tactile feel to cabinetry projects.

    Designed for Natural, Japandi Inspired Interiors

    Wabi Sabi design principles focus on authenticity, texture, and form that feels naturally imperfect rather than overly manufactured. In cabinetry hardware, this translates into soft curves, organic shapes, and finishes that complement timber, stone, and matte surfaces.

    The result is handles that feel integrated into the space rather than added on.

  • Why The Maxim Hotel Chose Our Brooklyn Handle

    Maxim Hotel Front Desk - Enko Group NZ

    When The Maxim Hotel got in touch, they were looking for more than just hardware. They needed something that could hold its own alongside full-height oak cabinetry, dark walnut finishes, and a high-end interior spec built for longevity. That’s where the Brooklyn handle came in.

    Designed by Viefe and distributed through Enko, the Brooklyn was the right fit for the finish, the size, and the feel.

    A Handle That Worked Across All Levels

    The Maxim Hotel isn’t small. It spans seven floors, with 80 guest rooms, two penthouses, a reception and meeting level, and a full wellness floor featuring a spa, heated pool, steam room, and Himalayan salt sauna.

    We supplied Brooklyn handles for use throughout their communal spaces. The brass finish sat perfectly against natural oak tones and darker cabinetry, and the larger sizes gave the joinery the scale and visual strength it needed.

        

    Why Brooklyn?

    • Architectural lines and a modern form that ties in with clean joinery and minimalist interiors

    • Available in multiple lengths, ideal for everything from wardrobes to full-height doors

    • Brushed Brass Cava finish that works with both warm timber and black detailing

    • Backed by Viefe’s reputation for quality, and available right here through us

    Brooklyn delivered on looks, performance, and finish consistency, something that matters on a multi-level commercial project like this.

    The Feedback

    The hotel team loved it - so much so that they've now expanded their use of Brooklyn, adding matching robe hooks and door stops across other rooms and future refurbishments.

    That kind of repeat specification is the clearest signal a product is performing. When a client goes back to the same handle across phases of a project, it's because it's doing exactly what they needed it to do.
