Carlton Gore Road, Newmarket

New Zealand Garden Golf

The client brief for this commercial venture in Rotorua was to design and construct a New Zealand landscape with distinct water features.

This we achieved by relocating a dead Rata tree with its ornate form of roots and trunk.It was seperated into three parts, transported and reassembled onsite. It also included a mature Griselinia tree.

Local volcanic rock from the Mount Tarawera eruption complete with lichen gives the landscape an aged effect.
Live interaction with “on course” rabbits and doves brings the life to an overall memorable environment.
The rest speaks for itself.

A recent project in Mairangi Bay, Auckland, was given the brief of ‘bringing Fiji’ to the property. The interest and challenge was the movement and placement of 40 tonne of boulders. In the middle of winter and limited space this was not for the faint hearted. The boulders were incorporated as a dual effect in being used for creative retaining as well as adding strength and contrast in the garden. The major success of this landscape is the clean and fresh presence of in-situ concrete that incorporates white cement and limestone. The balance between practical space and tropical paradise has been wonderfully received by the client.

Another project is the New Zealand Mini Golf Course in Rotorua. This commercial enterprise has been well reviewed in Rotorua for its landscape, intimacy and wild life integration of rabbits and doves. The initial brief was the inclusion of multiple water features and large rock boulders which create the space and environment of discovery.
