Design Concepts is a supplier, retailer and wholesaler of premium outdoor furniture. Simple, contemporary and elegant, our collections are designed in-house or by our suppliers’ design teams, and manufactured by skilled craftsmen to ensure they are of the highest quality. 

Our collections cover furniture as well as outdoor sun umbrellas and shade solutions, accessories like outdoor cushions, infrared heaters for the patio and beautiful outdoor fire pits and fires that burn biofuel so they can be used indoors too.

Our aim from the outset was to curate collections of beautiful outdoor furniture for all New Zealanders – providing high-quality furniture that rivals that of design stores, but without the high price tag. It is our belief that quality doesn’t have to be synonymous with a huge cost. While quality does cost more, it doesn’t need to be out of reach.

Design Concepts was formed in 2015 as a result of what seemed to be a large disconnect in the New Zealand outdoor furniture market between the major chain stores selling what we saw as throwaway items – those that are designed for the moment but don’t last – and the expensive, high-end design stores. 

With that in mind, we set out to create Design Concepts and provide a new take on quality outdoor furniture for New Zealanders – and we’ve made it even easier with NZ-wide shipping so you can buy quality outdoor furniture online.
