About Strata Springscape Whare Ataahua
Ko te whare ataahua o Strata Springscape e karapotia ana e te ao o nga papa me nga puna. Ko te waahi katoa kua mau ki nga huānga i whakaaweahia e te papa, te oneone, nga puna, me nga awa wai.

- Unique Properties
- The entire space is embedded with elements inspired by strata; soil; springs; and water streams. Fragments of strata and spring motifs can be seen dancing on the ceiling next to floating fountain-like mirrors. The walls are finished with blue gradations that resemble water streams reflected in a fountain; and with a texture evocative of stone gravel in a geological formation. The space is filled with the power and brilliance of nature, and visitors experience a world in which their bodies are enveloped by the ever-shifting landscape.

- Design Challenge
- As we become enfolded by the changing manifestations of strata and springs, we find their image permeating the richly expressive materials reflected, stretched, and expanded by mirrors.
This creates an environment full of diverse rhythms of shadows and reflections, shining like something organic and alive, thereby magnifying the joy of those who pass through it. - Research

- Inspiration
- A beauty salon surrounded by a world of strata and springs. The location is surrounded by many hills and slopes that retain the contours of a former large hilly area, with parks centered on sites with natural springs filled with waterborne from unique and roughly exposed sections of geological strata. Conscious of the origins of such a landscape, these strata, soil, springs, and hills became the starting point of our design. We thus sought to bring these natural elements into fresh relief in a single flow to create a space imbued with their energy and strength.
