Wanaka Happenings


                                    

We are stockists of these beautiful lights which bring vibrancy to any home or office. Come in and take a look at the options available.

“This form is based on the structure of a geometric polyhedron. Every piece is identical, making home assembly easy. The way it grows outwards with fingers reminds me of coral. I love to snorkel over reefs exploring the amazing detail and structure of all the various corals. Our kitsets significantly reduce freighting, which is one of our ways of doing what we can to help preserve our beautiful sea and land environments.” - David Trubridge


Wanaka Happenings

The kitchen was installed just in time for the Trends photographer and is amazing! You will see images of this in up and coming Trends Magazines which we are very excited about. Unfortunately we are unable to put images of the new kitchen on facebook or our website yet – but it won’t be long!
We look forward to sharing images and information about the open home times in the near future.

NEW COLLECTIONS

We have updated our library area at the back of the studio so that you can come in and browse our collection of textiles and wallpapers. Remember to ask if we don’t have something as we have an extensive range of suppliers who we can easily get samples from. Here are a few of our suppliers new collections which we have available to view at Melanie Craig Design.


Osbourne & Little
ATHLONE TEXTILE COLLECTION - The names in this collection evoke the dramatic coastline and rugged landscape of rural Ireland. A handsome collection of checks, gingham, tartans and stripes in a variety of qualities ranging from warm wool upholsteries to cool linen and cotton curtain fabrics. The colour palette includes traditional celtic tones of rust, heather and peat but is also enlivened with zestful lime and magenta. Come in and take a look!


GRAND TOUR WALLPAPERS - A collection of wallpapers inspired by the artistic and architectural treasures of Italy, especially those of Venice. Most of the wallpapers in this collection have co-ordinating or companion designs in GRAND TOUR FABRICS.


NEW from HARLEQUIN



Tempo is an upbeat, fashionable range of printed and woven fabrics which pays homage to the designs of the ‘50s, ‘60s and ‘70s. The collection encompasses a vibrant selection of ultra-modern prints and embroideries, ranging from sophisticated graphic silhouettes to funky, stylized florals and sleek stripes.
