Good design begins in noticing, the quiet details, the feeling a space leaves behind.

www.rume.nz Like many good ideas, this one started between two friends with a mutual love for beautiful objects, thoughtful design and interiors that felt as good as they looked. We started collecting - but we were fussy, we want

ed the kind of pieces that make you do a double take and ask “where did you get that?”; We were also very particular about quality items, comfort, form and function. Over time, what began as a shared passion project naturally evolved, and now it’s just me, Shon - the face you see in store, styling new spaces, packing orders, updating the website or filming reels for Instagram; (and potentially sampling the local Pinot at one of my favourite Martinborough vineyards or at the Brewery conveniently behind the store). I’m obsessed with timeless design and well-made pieces - and that’s exactly what you’ll see when you walk into Rume. (besides rearrange the furniture constantly)
Rume is more than just a beautiful store (but it's a really beautiful store). I also offer home styling consultations - whether you’re revamping your space, setting up a new one, or just can’t figure out why your living room still feels off. Need help finding the perfect piece? I am an expert hunter, too. If there’s something specific you’re after - that just-right pendant light, the elusive dining table of your dreams - I can source it for you, even if it’s not currently in our collection. Our collection (it’s not just a phase)
The range is constantly evolving. I like to keep things fresh and curated, so what’s on the shelves today might not be here next time you visit. I follow design trends loosely but always trust my gut when it comes to what to add to the range in store and online. Every season, you’ll see a slightly new edit. I believe in quality over quantity, soul over sameness and homes that reflect the people who live in them (like you!). Drop by the shop, browse online or get in touch if you need a wee bit of help with anything styling - Everyone knows I love a chat!

Probably not worth a post but I thought I would give my much-better-at-foliage-styling florist friend a good eye roll, my shop neighbour a laugh (she was wondering what the hell I was doing with half a tree on the counter), and my old Citta colleagues a walk down memory lane… hehe
Behold my “sticks” 😆 Foraged from my garden, I bloody love them, and I even got a “wow” comment from a very kind customer this afternoon as I was placing them on the shelf, annnnd I had some fun amongst all the shop admin today 🍂😁
Those shadows though 👌

Was beautiful in my city side garden this morning on my day off, those Tuis! It was short lived before jumping straight back in to work and life admin but still wholly appreciated 💚

This super soft cool little ottoman just had to go back to Sydney with its new owners as oversized luggage! These awesome guys had been in to Rume over a year ago and had bought a couple of cushions (one shown on the chair here, both still going strong and still loved!), I remember flattening down the cushion inners as small as I could for their carry on 🤣.
It was so cool to see them back in Martinborough over a year later coming in to say hi and buy to something else, and to get a message to say it arrived safe with a photo just really made my day!
The coolest thing from having the shop for over 2.75 years now is having repeat customers, including visitors from around the country and the world.
I love all the day trippers/weekenders from Welly too, it’s not often I have a day where I don’t know anyone that comes in.
The local community here are also very supportive of shopping local and the support I have from my more than regular regulars means the world!

This is Higgins (Higgy) 🐈‍⬛ and that beautiful green Lily throw was bought from Rume especially for him to snooze on as he has claimed this amazing David Shaw day bed (also from Rume). lucky the fabric chosen for the daybed was Snowdown by Zepel Fibreguard - so it will handle a few paw prints and a bit of dribble!
