Introducing Salone - Houlès latest

11 September 2025

We were so excited to hear about this: Houlès and Michael Aiduss have teamed up again for their second collaboration, called Salone. True to form it’s another stunning collection of elegant, characterful passementerie.
Salone is inspired by early Italian modernist architecture and offers a diverse range of looks - from botanical motifs, to hints of classicism and Ponti-esque geometrics. If you’re a fan of passementerie and the magical things it can do to an interior then call into a Unique showroom and see Salone.
Our Account Managers and Agents look forward to introducing you to this beautiful collection.

Design Days in Christchurch

Rebecca 09 September 2025

Something exciting for our clients in Christchurch later this week... Join Designmade and Mainland Design Centre for 2 days of inspiration as we showcase the latest collections from our suppliers. Start time is 9am for both days, finishing at 2pm on Friday. Visit anytime during the day, there will be no specific presentation times. Courtesy transport will be provided between the two locations.

Visitors to our MDC showroom are in for a treat… I will be previewing Carlucci’s 2025 release Above the Clouds. We can’t wait to give you a sneak peek of this stunning collection. I will also be presenting the new and very swoon-worthy collections from Houlès, including the fabulous Salone - the new collaboration between Houlés and Michael Aiduss.

See you at the Design Days!

Great news for fans of Houlès hardware - they have extended their hugely successful Auro range: Adding three new ‘editions’: Black, Concept and Petit Palace. They offer new finishes, more finial options and re-designed rings and brackets. See the catalogue HERE or visit the collection page HERE.
