Interior designer Rufus Knight calls the store “a dialogue between soft and hard surfaces”. Polished concrete floors, sandblasted marble walls and aged brass racks are complemented by handwoven jute rugs from Nodi Rugs and linen curtains in fabric by Dominique Kieffer in the changing rooms. Knight also designed Lonely’s Auckland store, but in Wellington he says he’s gone for an even more tactile feel backed up by colours of warm grey, earthy green and the luxury of a deep purple sofa by Living Divani.
