Top 10 New Zealand Art Prints to Brighten Your Home
New Zealand is such an incredible place. Breathtaking landscapes, quirky little towns, and a culture that is full of life. I love capturing that in my art, and one of my favourite ways to bring a piece of Aotearoa into your home is with New Zealand art prints. Whether you are after hand-drawn town illustrations, Kiwi-themed wall art, or a thoughtful, affordable gift, I have found prints that can add personality and a little bit of NZ flavour to any space.
Here are ten of my favourite original art prints I have worked on. Perfect for your home, bach, office, or as a gift for someone special.
1. Dunedin Art Print
Celebrate the charm of Dunedin with this hand-drawn illustration, perfect for any room. Famous for Larnach Castle, albatrosses, and boozy students, and hailed as more Scottish than Scotland (and at least as cold), Dunedin is the most underrated city in New Zealand, and this print captures its quirky essence.
2. Wellington Art Print
As the hipster, arts and culture heartbeat of Aotearoa. Wellington’s creative crowds roam the streets battling sideways rain, but as everyone knows, "you can't beat Wellington on a good day." This local NZ artwork captures the capital’s personality in style, a great addition for lovers of Aotearoa-inspired decor.
3. Christchurch Art Print
Bring the beauty of the Garden City into your living space with this unique piece. More recently known as 'the city that rocks', Christchurch has rebuilt a vibrant centre that’s now one of the most exciting spots in the country. A must-have for fans of eco-friendly art gifts that celebrate resilience and renewal.
4. Auckland City Art Print
A must-have for anyone who loves the hustle and bustle of NZ's largest city. Auckland is the place the rest of the country loves to bag out, but secretly envies. This Kiwi-themed wall art shows off the magic of the skyline, harbour, and city buzz in a print that's anything but generic.
5. Piha, Auckland Art Print
Aotearoa’s most famous surf beach, made mainstream thanks to Piha Rescue. The black sand, powerful surf, and dramatic cliffs are all captured in this hand-drawn town illustration. It's the perfect print for beach lovers looking to add unique home decor NZ style to their space.
6. Kaikōura Art Print
Add a touch of marine magic to your walls. Whale watching, dolphin swimming, surfing, and super fresh seafood, Kaikōura is the dream. This local NZ artwork brings the seaside to life and is one of our most popular eco-friendly art gifts.
7. Mt Maunganui Art Print
If you’ve been to Tauranga and haven’t climbed to the top of the Mount (selfie at the summit required), have you even been? This vibrant print is a celebration of Aotearoa-inspired decor, perfect for beach lovers and sunshine seekers.
8. Taupō Art Print
Sitting on the edge of NZ’s largest lake, offering stunning views and world-class fishing. Taupō is more than just a tourist playground; it’s a place of serenity, nature, and adventure. This original art print NZ captures the calm, cool energy of the region beautifully.
9. Port Chalmers Art Print
Often overlooked but loved by locals, Port Chalmers is full of history, rugged beauty, and a thriving arts scene. This piece is ideal for fans of hand-drawn town illustrations and makes a great, affordable art gift for anyone who knows and loves Otago.
10. Palmerston North Art Print
Palmy, the university town of farming, rose gardens, and a surprisingly strong sense of community. A mixed bag? Maybe. But that’s part of the charm. This print is perfect if you’re after unique home decor NZ style that celebrates the unexpected.
Each of these prints is more than just artwork. They are stories, memories, and a celebration of New Zealand townsand culture. Whether you are decorating your home or looking for a custom art commission, I hope my prints can bring a little piece of Aotearoa into your space.
