OMK 1965
OMK was founded by Rodney Kinsman in 1965 after graduating from the Central School of Art in London. Kinsman’s goal was to usher in a new era of modern British design. The company quickly became a key figure in the High-Tech design movement and produced many of the most successful furniture ranges that retailed through Terence Conran’s Habitat stores in the 60s and 70s.

OMK Tokyo Stools at the East Street Hall by Katie Lockhart Studio
We were very excited when Katie Lockhart selected our OMK 'Tokyo' stool for inclusion in the the East St. Hall interior fit-out. East St. Hall is the perfect place to experience Auckland’s diverse creative scene with a bold and playful interior that beautifully captures the spirit of the neighbourhood.
