Shades Of Grey
Grey Lynn
Grey Lynn is described by the NZ Herald as Aotearoa’s “most fascinating suburb” and by The Washington Post as “the most rewarding of Auckland’s neighbourhoods to traverse on foot”. Verve – now also of Grey Lynn – pays tribute to the legendary suburb with the help of some locals that know it best.
In celebration of Mother’s Day, Verve sits down with some cool Auckland mums who share some favourite memories and thoughtful parenting tips.

Nestled in the heart of the blue zone community of Nosara, Costa Rica Contemporary Tropical House brings warmth and comfort within nature.
Designed for a family with two kids and many friends, this country house sits in a gated community surrounded by neighbours while upholding privacy to allow exploration of the interaction between interior and exterior spaces, and contemplation of the dawn, the sunset, and views of nature.
It’s hard to beat a great carrot cake with lemony cream cheese frosting. The ‘naked’ method used here is quick and easy, with spectacular results. Decorate the cake with edible flowers from the garden, if you have them.
