CRAFTED IN MATAKANA
Born from humble beginnings in an old abandoned surfboard factory overlooking the estuary in Raglan. WRW & Co’s design ethos is pretty simple, we design with form and function top of mind, we are detail fanatics and we’re particularly proud of the meticulous finishing that we continuously deliver in our workshop. All WRW & Co products are made to order in our Matakana Workshop and displayed in our new Showroom in Matakana. We can customise any piece to fit your size and material requirements. In recent years, we’ve grown, moved and settled. Our facility is all about functional furniture that lasts a lifetime. We offer unique furniture for all rooms of the home, from the lounge to the bedroom and dining room through to outdoor furniture. WRW & Co’s now workshop is in a large old cider brewing shed full of hot Italian machine.
William Rupert Worsp
Founder, father and the creative behind WRW & Co. Will graduated from Otago Art School. After working in the creative departments on various film sets, Will headed off to travel the world by working on super yachts. This was followed by a stint in London where he project managed interior fit outs for brands such as GAP, H&M and Selfridges as well as restaurants and accommodation. However, New Zealand’s rugged countryside and an untapped desire to work with wood, finally lured him home to try his hand at designing and making furniture from reclaimed timbers. The unique first time pieces had such a great response from an Auckland design store, it cemented Will’s desire to start his own business…and from there, WRW & Co. was born!
