About Splendid Forest Hoahoanga o Roto mō te Kāinga Noho

He Ngahere Ataahua he hoahoanga o roto mō te kāinga noho i hangaia mō tētahi whānau tokorima. I tangohia ngā pātū wehewehe, nō reira ka noho tahi te ruma noho, te ruma kai, te kīhini me te wāhi tākaro hei wāhi whānui kotahi. Mā te mahere tuwhera e taea ai e ngā mātua te mātakitaki i ā rātou tamariki me te kore ārai. Ko te rākau, ngā papa whai ariā kōhatu me te konganuku e hanga ana i te pakitara pouaka whakaata, e toro atu ana ki te tuanui. Ko tētahi ripa hāngai kei te tomokanga e whakamaumahara ana ki ngā atarangi o ngā rākau ngahere. Ko ngā rama i hangaia kia rite ki ngā kapua me ngā manu e whakauka tonu ana i te kaupapa taiao. I tīpakohia te papa rākau nā te mea ka taea te whakahou mā te rangirua.

Production Technology
Instead of using an abrasion-resistant floor, the designer has chosen a wood floor that is consistent with the utility of stone grain, wood materials, and metals so as to reach the purpose of sustainable development.
