Meet Leanne – Founder & Lead Designer

I live and work in Titirangi, at the foothills of the Waitākere Ranges - the lungs of the city!  It’s the perfect place to create, surrounded by nature yet close to the heart of Auckland.

I’m a proud mum of two and for the past 26 years I’ve been deeply connected to the design industry.  As a Platinum Designer with the DNKBA and long-time member of the NKBA, I’ve built my career across several high-end design studios in Auckland before launching my own boutique studio.

My strength lies in spatial design - creating cabinetry that not only works beautifully but feels at home in your space.  From kitchens, bathrooms and laundries to bespoke one-off pieces, every design is considered, tailored and unique.

When you commission Leanne Harley Design, you’ll enjoy a comprehensive service from start to finish.  I bring together a trusted team of expert cabinetmakers, benchtop fabricators, trades and suppliers - all carefully curated over the years to ensure exceptional quality and service.

Above all, my focus is on the client experience.  I know renovations and new builds can feel overwhelming, so my process is designed to make the journey simple, collaborative and even fun.  The end result?  A bespoke space that fits your home perfectly and reflects your life and story.

Our Mission - To design beautiful, functional spaces that reflect your unique style, personality, and values. We’re committed to creating environments you’ll feel proud of - spaces that inspire, uplift, and feel truly yours.

Leanne Harley Design offers a full bespoke design service from concept through to completion including the supply and installation of:

• Kitchen
• Laundry
• Vanity 
• Wardrobe
• Home office/study
• Entertainment units
• Specialised cabinetry for the home
