Discovering the Heart of Hastings: A Celebration of Local Treasures
Every town has its treasures—quiet craftspeople, spirited entrepreneurs, and passionate locals who give colour and character to the streets they walk. Hastings, with its sunlit pace and soul-deep pride, is brimming with them.
We are honoured to be featured in the Hey! Stings campaign, a beautifully curated celebration of Hastings CBD and the people who give it life. Our sincerest thanks to @hastingscitynz and the.story.co for capturing our journey and the spirit that drives it.
In this video, you’ll discover more than tiles - you’ll uncover the heartbeat of who we are:
A warm and candid exchange between Milly and Ross captures the spirit behind our work.
A glimpse into the depth of expertise shared by Ross and the team who live and breathe design.
The undeniable charm of Leo, our golden retriever and resident cuddle specialist, is winning hearts one pat at a time.
A glimpse of our Hastings showroom—a space where creativity and possibility take shape.
A quiet but enduring pride in our roots: the landscape of Hawke’s Bay and the people who build dreams there.
And a window into our culture, grounded, passionate, and deeply connected to our clients' homes that we help bring to life.
The Essence of Home
At The Tile Shed, we believe that a home is more than four walls—it is a reflection of story, spirit, and intention. We do not aim to be everything to everyone. We choose to specialise, to refine, to curate. Our tiles are carefully selected with insight, each one with a distinct place and purpose.
Bringing Your Vision to Life
Whether you're working with raw plans or reimagining a beloved space, our in-store consultations and exclusive 3D rendering service (Design Space) ensure your vision is brought to life—beautifully, practically, and with the confidence that only experience can offer.
And we are in good company. The Hey! Stings campaign showcases the many faces of Hastings—the butchers, the tailors, the stylists, and storytellers who, like us, are proud to do what they do best:
Each business shares a common thread—a deep sense of place, purpose, and pride.
Visit Us in Hastings
We invite you to visit us at 201 Eastbourne Street West, Hastings, or our showroom in Taupō. Whether you come with plans in hand or simply curiosity in your heart, we are here to help you shape something beautiful. Because for us, it’s not just about tiles—it’s about building spaces that feel like home.
