A Return to Former Glory

Our Projects
Written By Kim Manunui

A massive pool has massive visual weight and can make (or break) the landscape. So when it was found this pool was leaking with surface damage it was a no brainer to modernise the whole look, and return the entire area to its former glory.

 

Breathing life into this huge 25m x 7m Taupo pool required two giant tents to cover and two days of in-situ fibreglassing to repair and refurbish back to its former glory.

Leaking with surface damage, it was clear this pool required remedial work and a full fibreglass resurface. Whilst undertaking the repair work, it was also a great opportunity to replace the leaking lights and update the waterline tiles to add a more modern style to the pool aesthetic.

The old royal blue pool colour was modernised to Linen with Blue Silver Glitter - creating the feeling of being in their very own island resort. Finished with Bisazza waterline tiles in muted greys and grey blues with copper and white accents to complement the pool colour beautifully.

Hi, I’m Kim and I work with a great team to help individuals, as well as small and not so small businesses get their message, product and services to the world using digital media and creating wonderful websites that don’t cost the earth.

I was born in Canada, and grew up around Vancouver and the mountains of British Columbia. My love of pristine environments led me to New Zealand and eventually to the mountains, lakes and rivers of the central North Island which is home. My family’s heritage is here, and it’s from here that Korio traverses the planet.

The digital world is never static and neither are we.

And I say ‘we’ because I work with an awesome group of talented people who I gather together as required to complete a project.  Whatever your business, not-for-profit or individual needs are we gather the best team to get the job done.

Collaboratively we are creative, share sustainable values and work hard for great outcomes because that’s the buzz of satisfaction that drives us.

If you have an audience and market to reach, we can make that happen. Creative design, words that work and smart behind the scenes stuff that cuts through the online noise. We’ll design your website and then build it. We’ll manage the content as well as all your hosting needs. We can handle your online advertising so you get noticed,
and we’ll manage your social media presence so you get the clicks, likes and engagement to grow your business. All within the budget you set, because none of this needs to cost the earth.  And the job doesn’t stop when your website goes live. We are your virtual business partner.
