An Edge For Design

Design-led architectural bathware, grounded in form, function, and intention.

In today’s interiors, the bathroom has evolved beyond its utilitarian roots. It is no longer a hidden corner of the home, but a sanctuary for ritual, renewal, and refined living. At the heart of this transformation is design, measured not only by beauty, but by the subtle balance of form and function.

Where Our Design Begins

Buddy

Plumbline’s design work starts here in Aotearoa New Zealand. Our team innovate products for the way people live and the spaces they live in. We favour clean lines, practical forms, and materials that carry weight and meaning.

Take the Buddy collection. It wasn’t selected, it was designed. Born at Plumbline, it began with a clear purpose to create a complete range of tapware and accessories that speaks to the varied tastes of New Zealand designers, a collection as expansive and expressive as the landscapes that inspire us. Every detail developed in-house, in conversation with local designers and Italy’s finest metalworkers.

Refined Through Global Collaboration

While design begins here, it doesn’t end here. We work with leading international manufacturers who share our values, design-led thinking, exceptional quality, and a commitment to precision at every level.

“For over 35 years, we’ve built a strong relationship with our Italian manufacturing partner behind the Buddy collection. That foundation has shaped what Buddy is today, six distinctive styles, 12 finishes, and more than 300 individual pieces.”
Geoff Wallace, Plumbline Founder

Some relationships go further, like our exclusive collaboration with Australian designer Greg Natale. A bold fusion of art and architecture, realised in the sculptural Milazzo collection.

Together, we bring global expertise into local context.

Endless Possibilities

Design flexibility shouldn’t come at the cost of clarity. That’s why our collections are carefully considered. While offering a complete, refined range that gives real choice without complexity or compromise.

My Vanity captures this balance. Our customisable vanity system offers a wide range of styles, tops, colours, and materials, giving you the freedom to create with confidence, knowing what you imagine can be realised.

Made-to-Measure brings precision to scale. For spaces that demand more or less, it allows for exact sizing without compromising on proportion or finish.

Oasis, our latest addition to Made-to-Measure, brings it all together. Designed in-house and manufactured in Spain, it puts colour, scale, and shape at the forefront, not as an afterthought but as a defining element of the space.

Built to Belong

From our in-house collections to global collaborations, everything we create is shaped by a clear design philosophy, grounded in form, function, and longevity. We design with discipline, refine through partnership, and deliver collections that meet the needs of architects, designers, and the spaces they shape.

Collections like Buddy, complete architectural tapware, Milazzo, sculptural basins by Greg Natale, My Vanity, a customisable modular vanity system, and Oasis, Made-to-measure integrated basins with curated colour options, reflect this approach. Each offers a distinct expression of considered design, made to elevate real spaces and endure daily life.

Thoughtful. Refined. Built to belong.
