In a world that moves fast, Flux was born from a quiet idea — that happiness isn’t found in more things, but in meaningful moments, beautiful spaces, and the gentle rhythm of everyday life.
Rooted in the serene simplicity of Scandinavian design and the grounded, salt-kissed spirit of the New Zealand coast, Flux is more than a homeware store. It’s a curated collection of calm. A celebration of design with soul. A space where beauty meets intention.
We believe your surroundings should evolve with you. That change — whether a seasonal refresh, a thoughtful new piece, or a full room transformation — doesn’t need to cost the earth, and can be surprisingly simple. Our physical store in Mount Maunganui and our online boutique shift and grow weekly, with new treasures arriving daily.
Founded by interior designer Emma Walsh, and her husband - furniture maker Josh Speeden - Flux was born from a love of discovery and a desire to bring design to life — not behind a screen, but in real spaces.
Emma’s background in Architectural Design (B.Arch) and Interior Design (Dip.Int.Des) laid the foundation for what Flux would become: a home for curated furniture, home décor, lighting, and gifts, handpicked from local and international makers for their quality, character, and timeless beauty.
Our pieces are chosen with purpose — natural textures, neutral palettes, and thoughtful craftsmanship — all designed to help you create a home that feels as good as it looks. Whether you’re looking for that perfect finishing touch or a full-room reimagination, our team is here to help you bring your vision to life.
Need a hand pulling a look together? Emma offers both in-home consultations and e-design packages (coming soon to the website) tailored to projects big and small — from single rooms to full house designs. You can book a time to chat with Emma in-store, or pop in and talk to one of our friendly and knowledgeable shop assistants, available seven days a week.
Have a unique idea or a special piece in need of a refresh? Emma and Josh work together on custom furniture and restoration projects to help bring your vision to life — beautifully and more affordably than you might expect.
