Willow Park / Country Estate
By Good_Space
Willow Park is a Country Estate reimagined, an evolution of the Hurst family home. More than just the building itself, its idyllic nature-scape + surrounding farmland have long been an oasis for reflection + inspiration. Willow Park honours its past + respects its future with an entire renovation of the original Oamaru Stone homestead, a modern extension now doubles the footprint + brings Willow Park into a new era.
With Wellness Architecture at the core, the vision was to design a biophilic, sustainable, health + wellness home. One that regenerates it’s natural resources + continues to inspire in a much-elevated way.
All materials, products + finishes were mindfully curated. Aesthetically its where high-quality craftsmanship meets laid-back luxury. From a technical POV its where non-toxic + sound absorbing materials take centre stage, with circadian rhythm lighting + UV purified water for good measure.
The homestead consists of 8 bedrooms + ensuites, 3 living areas, 2 dining areas, 3 outdoor entertaining areas + a tranquil outdoor bath area.

Wellness Architecture
Our relationship with space is intimate. From the air we share, to the sounds we hear – we’re more connected than we realise, given we spend 21 hours per day inside - almost 90% of our time.
It affects us more than we realise. The impacts of how we spend our time are showing up in our mental, physical and emotional health. It’s not just about keeping a healthy diet or exercise regime, it’s the big stuff that’s really impacting us; it’s where we spend our time.
Our disconnect from the natural world means that we’re also increasingly distracted from protecting our most precious resources, our environment that sustains us.
There’s a reason that the Wellness Architecture trend is on a steep trajectory, the impacts continue to be measured and it provides a framework to design + build better.
Through substantiated research, exciting new materials, innovative technology and rigorous building standards, Wellness Architecture is here. Not only that, it’s been coined as one of the most meaningful future wellness trends of 2019.
