Being an architect, this Canterbury client had high expectations around quality and finish. But with young energetic children they also wanted the pool to provide fun for all. The final design is elegant and minimal, with beautiful lines that are also functional – with a sloping bottom that starts shallow ledge and ends with steps and a platform at the deeper end. Making the whole pool more accessible for all ages.

Wishing to maintain the modern minimal look, the clients opted to minimise fencing requirements by creating a “moat” along the length of the pool. A beautiful feature that enhances the garden and preserves safety.

Excavation required an archaeologist on site due to the historical nature of the site, which was easily managed by the Mayfair team.

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.
