Hewlett Oasis is a KiwiBuild project within the ring of fast-growing Westgate area. The building form is oriented to maximise open views, as well as timber textured cladding and semi-basement public car park which also makes this 36 units community well settled in the gap of nature and urban context.
The construction began late 2019 and all 36 units have been fully delivered to the new owners in June 2021.
With Home Star 6 rating, the homes have been built to a standard higher than the building code with more insulation, excellent acoustic performance, effective moisture control and efficient heating, lighting, providing a quiet and warm home to each resident.
To implement 36 units and the semi-basement into the well-developed suburb, a tailored site management was formulated and carefully carried out through the whole constitution. Where the unforeseen lockdown impacted a lot to New Zealand due to the first outbreak of Covid-19, the site come up a series of responses to make sure the on-time delivery of this project at last.
While Health and Safety is always the priority, everyone has been worked together all the time to keep the performance at a high level. Health and Safety training was organized regularly to site workers and frequent visitors in order to minimise potential safety risk.
