THE INTERIOR DESIGN PRECINCT
DESIGNMADE IS A THRIVING HUB OF INTERIOR DESIGN SHOWROOMS BASED IN THE HEART OF ŌTAUTAHI. MEET SOME OF THE BRANDS INSIDE THIS DEDICATED INSPIRATION SPACE.
Andrew Hopping, owner of Designmade, is dedicated to serving the needs of the interior design industry. While the showroom is open for designers, architects and retailers, the general public are encouraged to use the space as a library of beautiful home furnishings with access to a directory of interior designers. “Trade showrooms allow products to be seen and experienced by trade and their clients. It’s a valuable resource in determining options, with the added value of an extensive product cross section, not limited to what a particular retail outlet is offering,” says Andrew.
The open plan showrooms house the very best in traditional and contemporary furniture, fabrics, wall coverings, flooring, blinds, lighting and tapware. “The fact that Designmade is not a retail outlet, it is a resource of product information, allows people to accumulate facts and ideas without the pressure of being in a place where cost and sales are at the forefront,” says Andrew.
