Four weeks at home during the New Zealand lockdown allowed us to reassess the way we did things.  We were forced to create an office space at home for those important Zoom calls. Some of us even took to DIYs around the home that never got done otherwise.  But one thing’s for sure: We have come to appreciate what’s in our very backyard more than ever. NZ-Made products have become the hottest trend after lockdown!

New Zealand designers are known to push boundaries and create products for your home that are unique and sustainable.  We appreciate workmanship and quality in our products at home, but now it has a whole new meaning.  Today, we want the same workmanship and quality, but with purpose and meaning.
