Overview:

ECOTONE recently embarked on an exciting venture at the Kainga Ora Apartments located on Hill Crescent in the heart of New Lynn, New Zealand. We were tasked with imbuing the precast panels, cast to resemble brick molds, with the timeless charm of Huntly clay bricks. The objective was to create an illusion so convincing that it would elevate the entire building's visual appeal.

Project Details:

Client: McMillian & Lockwood
Location: Hill Crescent, New Lynn, New Zealand

Methodology: The success of this project hinged on a meticulous approach that merged artistry with technique. Our team, in close collaboration with the project architects, selected a custom stain blend designed to mimic the distinctive hues and textures of bricks. This creative enhancement not only elevates the aesthetic appeal of the apartments but also pays homage to the region's architectural heritage.

This undertaking exemplifies our commitment to blending aesthetics, innovation, sustainability, and functionality in the realm of architectural design. Ecotone remains dedicated to pushing the boundaries of concrete transformation to create visually stunning and enduring architectural solutions.
