Small Lifestyle Stunner

Our Projects
Written By Kim Manunui

With many challenges to overcome when it came to access, size, and design, these clients and their family have now clocked endless hours of fun in their small lifestyle stunner – which blends seamlessly with their existing entertainment area and the beautiful surrounds.

 

Even a lifestyle block can have restrictions when it comes to pool size. With access issues and big contours surrounding the house, these lifestyle blocky clients wished to seamlessly integrate a pool into their existing outdoor entertaining area - but weren’t sure how to make it fit. Maintaining the view was also a key factor in the brief, so fencing needed to be tailored to fit. And wanting a point of difference – a water feature – was top of the ‘nice to haves.’

One of the challenges the team faced was access for diggers and trucks etc, however this was well managed and executed without damage to existing infrastructure

The team also worked extra hard to meet the ‘Summer of ‘22’ wishful deadline so the clients could immediately jump in and get the most out of their first summer of swimming.

“Blair and the Team have done a wonderful job designing and installing Our Family pool.

From the day we met with Blair and Rachel to discuss our pool project, through to design and a few iterations, to consents and the actual building process, they have been extremely professional, helpful and responsive to queries throughout the entire build process. Communication from Blair and Rachel was wonderful and we knew what was planned and happening throughout the project and we received regular updates.

We had a goal to have the Pool ready for 2022/23 summer and with the dedicated focus and commitment from Blair and the team, our family have managed to have endless hours of fun over the summer break.

The finish of the pool, including the installation of our water feature is to a very high standard. We can’t thank Blair and Rachel enough and we would highly recommend them to others considering building a pool.”

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.
