ABOUT
endemicworld.com is new zealand's online design store offering fresh, creative and individualised products across a wide range of categories.
We focus on products that have had that extra bit of effort put in; well researched design, products with unique stories, elements of creativity not seen elsewhere and most of all passionate people making it happen.
The vision for endemicworld.com was born in 2006 when New Zealander Elliot Alexander realised how many fledgling New Zealand designers were working under the radar making cool gear and unique products that customers couldn’t find.
endemicworld.com is now providing a bridge for those who desire individualised, limited edition, one-off or hard to find pieces, available on a secure and reliable retail system.

Thanks to Shaun and his canon shooting skills endemic is full of crisp product images. If he isn’t behind the camera you will bump into him stalking trout on New Zealand’s finest rivers posing for his self-portraits. He says it attracts more fish. |

When Richard dies, his headstone will read "Limited Edition", such is his passion for all things collectible. In between trawlingthrough trainershops in the U.K. he managed to fit in a design career in the record and advertising industries before stowing away on an ocean liner headed for endemicworld.com. Having arrived at the promised land, Richard continues to think design and barbeque. |
