Husband and wife team, Paul and Simone
Rinke-Mailman are the creators behind Rinke Design - a commercial/domestic high
end furniture design store making waves in
Newmarket. With a
dedicated children's space; with a drawing table, tv, reading, foosball or air
hockey, there is plenty for children of all ages to entertain themselves.
The huge range in the store (just 10% of what is
available from their warehouse and catalogue) includes high-end imported
European product but also, wonderfully, affordable New Zealand manufactured
suites built to European designs and standards. "Furniture design in New
Zealand has huge potential," says Paul. "New Zealand
manufacturers haven't pushed the limit to produce European design because it's
not a simple process, there's a lot of development that goes into producing a
suite to that quality. But now we're excited to be doing it."
And they can turn it around in a fast time
frame. "Being able to make high end furniture here in
New Zealand allows us to
adapt pieces to certain lengths, with a range of upholstery options and, not
only is it deliverable within a five week window, compared to up to 16 or 26
weeks when imported, they don't carry that high-end price point."
Rinke also holds the exclusive license for the
LIMITLESS brand from the Netherlands. It is a wonderful blend of modern
materials such as wood, glass, acrylics, steel and aluminium.
However, Paul and Simone's biggest seller has
been The Perfect Chair to come out of the US. "It's great for people with bad
backs and disabilities," says Simone, "but it is also the most comfortable
home theatre chair you will ever come across."
The Perfect Chair was inspired by
NASA using Aero Space technology to create a zero-gravity position cradles your
back and elevates your legs above your heart.
Beautiful Art work from four
New Zealand artist feature in the showroom, and keep an eye out for the
new
children's range - the baby Barcelona is the cutest thing you will ever see!
Paul is a cabinet maker by trade. "I've been in
furniture since I left school so I can't remember a time I didn't have a
fascination for furniture." Paul and Simone are a hugely enthusiastic couple
and proud to offer a New Zealand component as the environmental impact of what
they do is an issue close to their hearts.
Thank you for your continued support.
