Bedroom furniture company Okooko originates in New Zealand and is projecting Kiwi-style concern for the environment in Hong Kong.
'Our motto is that all the products we sell must be as natural and as 'New Zealand' as possible,' says managing director Dondy Poernomo, who will oversee the showroom's move from the 27th to the 26th floor of Horizon Plaza later this year.
'We emphasise green sourcing and manufacturing, and a raw material like latex - used in mattresses and pillows - only comes from carefully chosen plantations in Malaysia.'
New products now available exemplify this approach. The headboards of Glow beds are made of black tawa wood and, as a distinctive touch, also incorporate energy-efficient lights.
Internationally recognised New Zealand-based designer David Trubridge has come up with an eye-catching range of lighting, which makes a point of using natural, non-chemical materials.
'I particularly like the way his designs use [recycled] plywood,' Poernomo says. 'Before, we had a small part of the range, but we now carry all of it.'
