Chic inner-city apartments with designer appliances
A character Auckland building has been reworked as modern units Block 7 offers refined living, right down to the choice of Eisno appliances

With apartment blocks going up all the time it can take something different to really stand out.
Block 7 is a reworking of an historic central Auckland building into a New York loft-style apartment project inspired by the Art Deco period, says project director Craig Johnson of Robert Fisher & Associates.
"Respected architect Paul Brown has taken a 1925 iconic building and reinvented it while retaining all its character period charm.
"The eight-level freehold residential projectfeatures 28 intelligently designed units in a range of sizes and shapes, with just four on each floor many with their own private balconies."
The first four floors behind the original facade have been rebuilt in concrete, glass, and steel framing all featuring high-stud ceilings. Block 7's top three floors are the new addition, also with airy, modern, character-filled spaces.
"Centrally situated in Anzac Ave, the units are ideal for those who want a refined lifestyle at a landmark inner-city address," says Johnson.

The fixtures and appliances at Block 7 match the calibre of the development. Italian fashion appliance brand Eisno supplied the high-tech appliances, all boasting the latest aesthetics and advanced time- and labour-saving functionality. Eisno business development manager Emma Ren says all models at Block 7 offer ease of use and appeal to a range of tastes.
