What you should know about INSTUDIO DECORATIVE ART AND DESIGN
InStudio Decorative Art and Design is based in Auckland, New Zealand, and specialises in antique restoration and special decorative finishes including gilding, gold and metal leaf applications, as well as a wide range of faux finishes, marbling, glazing and custom paint finishes for interior or exterior surfaces. Johan has over 30 years experience in the field of decorative arts and design in the Netherlands and New Zealand. Professionally trained in the Netherlands, Johan worked as a decorative artist for Queen Beatrix on the Royal Palace restoration project. New Zealand projects have included Auckland’s Metropolis Hotel, Sky City Casino and Vero Building, as well as Dunedin’s Southern Cross Casino, Queenstown’s Millennium Hotel and a number of offices, residences and super yachts in Auckland.
Johan was also a senior lecturer on a design programme at Unitec in Auckland for 10 years. He and his wife Annelies owned Van Westen Antique Studio in Newmarket, Auckland, for several years, selling fine antiques and providing an antique restoration service. In addition to Johan’s work with architects, designers and homeowners, he designs and produces his own range of French mirrors and dining tables. It is very difficult finding really professional, knowledgeable and skilled antique furniture restorers unless you hear by word of mouth.
The other thing I like is that Johan doesn’t ruin the character of a piece by over restoring it. The quality of workmanship is exceptional most repairs being completely invisible. You have saved the insurance industry a lot of money with your professional repairs, and made our customers very happy. Poor old secretaire, been shunted from this country to that, so I shall make sure it very very carefully packed this time! I would recommend Johan to everyone, he is very easy to work with and knowledgeable. The service InStudio provided was Prompt, Johan collected, assessed and gave quote.
Johan is a magician! He is one of the best around with any aspect of antique restoration and I have trust him with projects for years. We have been very impressed with the quality and finish of the restoration work carried out by Johan
