The Olive Harvest.
More to come.

On an elevated podium above the green belt of Coatesville’s coveted hills, this Fearon Hay-designed residence is a study in effortless indoor-outdoor living.

Here, our DEVON® Opito Sofa sits as both anchor and invitation on the terrace, shaded by the extended eave. Its generous proportions make it an ideal perch for early morning coffee or aprés-swim conversation.

Crafted from fine-sanded teak and plush weather-proof cushions in Marble, the sofa blends in elegantly with the home’s natural and refined material palette.

Few snaps from the team last weekend. We're not ready to believe summer has finished just yet!

IT'S OFFICIAL; We welcome Coast New Zealand to the DEVON® family.

As we enter DEVON’s 50th year, I’ve been reflecting on how we continue to grow while staying true to what has defined us for nearly five decades...

In November 2025, we acquired Coast New Zealand. Since then, we’ve been focused on thoughtfully bringing the two brands together behind the scenes.

For those unfamiliar, Coast is a premium New Zealand brand renowned for its outdoor beanbags, loungers and lifestyle pieces designed for relaxed outdoor living. The founders, Nicola & Alex Webster, built a strong and well-respected brand, and I’d like to sincerely acknowledge them for what they created. We’re proud to carry that legacy forward.

The decision to acquire Coast felt like a natural progression for DEVON®. Where DEVON® has long focused on structured, architectural outdoor furniture, Coast brings a softer, more relaxed layer to outdoor spaces. The two brands complement each other without overlapping.

Today, Coast remains its own brand, with its own identity and website. It now sits under the DEVON® umbrella, and Coast products are available to view in our Parnell Studio. Our focus is on strengthening both brands while preserving what makes each distinct.

As we celebrate our 50th Anniversary this year, this feels like the right evolution — building on our heritage while expanding our vision of outdoor living.

Thank you for being part of our journey.

Matthias Strickett.
Managing Director | DEVON Outdoor + Coast New Zealand

The North Clubhouse at Te Arai Links offers stunning views of the Pacific Ocean, where surfers trace the break and golfers play the 1st and 18th holes below.

It’s a place designed for lingering — for early breakfasts in the salt air, long lunches that stretch into the afternoon, and relaxed drinks after a round well played.

DEVON® dining settings and sofas sit out the terrace, crafted to withstand the coastal elements while inviting guests to settle in and stay awhile.

Exclusive to golfers playing the North Course and resort guests, but you can get a taste here (+ shop the look online).
