One of our customers, getting great results. 300 tons of Co2 emissions prevented. We love playing a little but integral part. Carbon Analytics and Management. Credit to Bernie O'Fagan and his team for pushing on with Carbon Management on their projects. Wishing you well for the awards.
Our client's focus was their clients focus, from the outset. And this is what made the project, a finalist in healthcare, special. The duress and trauma associated with losing a limb is immense. Governance of Peke Waihanga had a vision to create a safe, nurturing and calm environment and RM Designs helped them tell the story. The strong influence of DfMA saw the assembly on site of many timber components. (CLT, GLT and PLT) The aesthetic of these not only answered the key part of the brief, it created a quieter work site given the new building was immediately adjacent to the existing facility which was operational during the process. Ariki Creative helped tell the story of Tane, embedding key items into the design and referencing the narrative of the nearby Burwood plantation. The environmental benefits of the mass timber components was more than a bonus. It's fantastic timing that this project is a finalist in the health care category in the Best Awards, the showcase of the Designers Institute of New Zealand, when the Para Olympics are about to begin. They will wave the flag for the mostly unseen majority of Peke Waihanga clients whose lives are just a little better as a result of the care in this nurturing facility We look forward to seeing the work of others at the celebration dinner and sharing a glass of wine with them, and most importantly with our client who had this vision ....and believed. Thanks to our partners ENGCO Consulting Engineers, XLam, Techlam NZ, Woodspan, Hori Te Ariki Mataki at Ariki Creative and client Peke Waihanga #bestawards #masstimber #dfma #offsitenz #paraolympics
