MAGPIE

Another newcomer to the precinct is design store Magpie, which owner Tilly Merson has filled with a curated collection of handmade ceramics and pottery, basketware, plants, art and New Zealand-made furniture. “They’re all things I’d like to fill my home with,” says self-confessed magpie Tilly. “It’s a sanctuary for like-minded individuals to decorate their lives.” 203 Heretaunga St East, facebook.com/magpiethecollective
