Top 5 House Number Styles for NZ Homes in 2025

Steel-crafted identity meets modern Kiwi design

In 2025, house numbers are more than just functional—they’re a statement of style, pride, and place. Whether you're nestled in a coastal bach or perched on a hillside villa, your address sign is the first impression your home makes. And in true New Zealand fashion, it should be durable, elegant, and unmistakably yours.

1. Corten Steel Minimalism

Raw, rugged, and rusted to perfection

Corten steel continues to dominate NZ gardens and facades with its earthy patina and industrial charm. Homeowners love its ability to weather naturally, blending into native landscapes while standing out with bold numerals.

Best for:

Modernist builds, native gardens, timber or concrete cladding

Popular finish:

Natural rust with laser-cut stencil font

Explore corten steel house numbers

2. Powder-Coated Precision

Clean lines, crisp contrast, and coastal durability

For those who prefer a sleeker look, powder-coated steel offers a sharp, contemporary finish that resists salt spray and UV fade. Available in matte black, white, gold or custom hues, these numbers pop against light weatherboards or stone walls.

Best for:

Urban homes, beach properties, minimalist architecture

Popular finish:

Matte black with sans-serif floating numbers

Shop powdercoated address signs

3. Floating Shadow Mounts

Depth, drama, and designer flair

Floating house numbers create a subtle shadow effect that adds depth and sophistication. Mounted with spacers, they appear to hover off the wall, catching light and attention.

Best for:

Statement entrances, feature walls, architectural builds

Popular finish:

Matte black powder coat with simple font

Discover floating house numbers

4. Custom Font & Name Combos

Your number, your name, your story

Many Kiwi homeowners are choosing to pair their house number with their family name, street name, or even a Māori word that reflects their values. Custom fonts and layout options make each sign truly one-of-a-kind.

Best for:

Families, heritage homes, identity-driven design

Popular finish:

Black stainless steel with serif font and horizontal layout

Create your own custom address sign

5. Garden Stake Numbers

Functional art that grows with your landscape

For homes with long driveways or hidden entrances, garden stake numbers offer visibility without compromising aesthetics. These freestanding signs can be placed among flax, grasses, or gravel, turning your address into a sculptural feature.

Best for:

Rural properties, lifestyle blocks, garden lovers

Popular finish:

Corten steel stake with bold cut-out numerals

View garden stake numbers

Final Thoughts

Your house number isn’t just a locator—it’s a reflection of your home’s personality. Whether you lean toward rustic corten or sleek powder-coated steel, the right style will elevate your entrance and make your mark.

All our address signs are proudly made in Auckland, crafted from premium NZ steel, and designed to last in our unique climate.
