An immersive, sensory experience with interlinking water features evokes the pristine waters of Lake Wakatipu below.

 

Winner of the 2024 SPASA Fibreglass Pool over $120,000!

It wasn't just about the pool in this extraordinary Queenstown project. Developing an immersive, sensory experience with interlinking water features to evoke the pristine waters of Lake Wakatipu below was paramount.

Gary Todd Architecture created an amazing design with numerous challenges that the experienced team at Mayfair Pools & Spas handled with aplomb. The water features start at the front entrance with a mirror pond to calm the senses as you enter this beautiful residence. As you walk through the house all you see is the blending of the pool into Lake Wakatipu. The huge cantilever pool also comes with a 5m infinity edge 'waterfall' to create a 'grotto' under the pool and behind the sheet of water. A stunning feature.

The end result really speaks for itself, with the precision of the design allowing the homeowners to effortlessly go with flow.

What the client has to say:

“We have now lived in our new home for two and a half years. We have loved our pool both aesthetically through all seasons and it is absolutely amazing to swim in. It’s length enables us to both exercise doing lengths. We regularly watch the activities going on in the lake whilst looking over the infinity edge. The waterfall is enjoyable to sit behind in our garden bringing a true sense of serenity and it is very pretty in the evening when the pond lights are on and we are enjoying our spa pool.

Mayfair pools have been friendly, knowledgeable and professional to deal with from the initial design stage to refining all the options and working through any challenges for a stunning and unique final outcome with a beautiful swimming pool and grand waterfall.

Kim Manunui

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.
