ABOUT US

The Studio

Forager Studio are interior design specialists based in Queenstown. With a wealth of experience across all design genres, we work on projects throughout New Zealand, delivering tailored design solutions to both residential and commercial clients.


After studying in New Zealand, founder Jess Blair spent time working overseas gathering precious experience and inspiration in Holland and the UK. Settling in the Whakatipu basin, Forager Studio has grown into a multi-disciplinary design practice with a diverse portfolio of hotel, hospitality, workplace, retail, healthcare, and residential projects.


Our talent for finding and weaving together materials sees us with a portfolio of beautifully functional, yet thoughtful interior spaces.

We create engaging and thoughtful spaces. Spaces that endure. Spaces that evoke emotion and enrich daily living.

Creative Director
Every client brings a new story to uncover and share. I draw inspiration from spending time with my clients, from nature, and from moments collected through my own travel experiences. I believe that spaces should evoke feeling and nourish the soul.
