The OBJECT ROOM

Specialties

Everyday objects with function & style, for you & your room.

Our concept is to bring you everyday objects that are both useable and stylish, items for the home and for you, all chosen for their simplicity, functionality and good quality craftsmanship.

History

Established in 2011.

The Object Room was opened in 2011 by Luke McCarthy and Timond Chu, with the vision of bringing an original, unique offering of design items to the New Zealand market.

Constantly evolving, the store now offers a wide range of products for the home and for day to day use. All products are hand-​chosen by Luke and Timond, often found and sourced direct from designers and manufacturers they have met with on overseas travels.

The Object Room are the exclusive stockists in New Zealand for most of their key brands. This includes a somewhat eclectic but equally stylish mixture of aromatic products, design objects, bags and wallets, unique jewellery, stationery, gadgets and office accessories.

A store with huge international influences that still offers friendly, local service to its customers — customers that are constantly impressed by the quality of the products on offer and a selection that keeps them up to date and inspired.
