When you shop for great design products from New Zealand you can now meet the wonderful people behind the brands and discover their stories. What inspires them, likes and dislikes, how their brand and products came to life and links to thier own myspace and other community pages.

You can view all of the designer profiles here. Get to know the designers behind your favourite brands.

We will be featuring a New Zealand designer everyday on the homepage.

Today HB media, publishers of Idealog magazine, launched Good Magazine - New Zealand’s guide to sustainable living.

Featured inside, amongst a heap of rich content, is New Zealand homeware designer Jo Muir. Her hemp cushions are filled with 100% New Zealand wool and hand printed with natural dyes.

Winter brings this cool orange light into our office in the morning. The first image is of a wall that we post inspiration and random stuff on. The second image is a close up of a painting we have by New Zealand artist Rob Tucker.

The winner of the $150 gift voucher will be announced soon. Thanks to everyone who forwarded it on to friends and family. Check out the new paradigm bags and badges that went up on Friday.
