About Tahi
Tahi Avenue is a New Zealand-based design studio creating contemporary artwork for modern, architectural spaces. Each piece is carefully developed with a focus on balance, materiality, and form, designed to integrate seamlessly within refined interiors, not simply fill a wall.
Drawing from the textures, light, and natural elements of Aotearoa, the collection explores subtle movement, tonal depth, and considered composition. Created for spaces where detail matters, Tahi Avenue brings a sense of calm, structure, and quiet impact — the finishing layer that completes a room.
The story behind the studio
Tahi Avenue was founded by Michelle Brown — a New Zealander with over 30 years of experience in design, print, and marketing, working with some of New Zealand's and the world's most recognised brands.
The studio came to life in the most personal of ways. After building her own home, Michelle found herself faced with walls that deserved more than what was readily available - artwork that felt considered, architectural, and genuinely made for the space rather than placed within it.
"I couldn't find large scale artwork that felt right for a modern New Zealand home. So I created it."
With deep expertise in print production, design, and understanding how creative work sits within real environments, Michelle brought a professional rigour to what began as a personal search. The result is Tahi Avenue — a studio built on the belief that the right artwork doesn't just decorate a space, it defines it.
The work
Every piece in the Tahi Avenue collection is available as a high quality print, or professionally printed and framed to order. Sizes are designed for scale, to anchor a room, create a focal point, and bring a sense of intention to modern interiors.
Limited edition works are released in carefully considered collections, each piece numbered and never reproduced once sold.
We ship nationwide across New Zealand.
Just launched. A selection of our artwork is also available as digital downloads via our Etsy store, Tahi Studio NZ, a great way to experience the work before committing to a framed piece, or for those who prefer to print locally. https://www.etsy.com/nz/shop/TahiStudioNZ
