About Porch Wāhi Maha-Tukanga

I tūtaki ngā kaihanga ki te mahi uaua o te whakauru i ngā āhuatanga tawhito o Īrana ki te ātaahua hou-ao, engari i taea tonu e rātou te hanga tauira ki roto i tēnei wāhi maha-tukanga. I whakamahia ngā kāri hina me te kikorangi pōuri tahi me ngā mutunga mākohakoha hei hanga papamuri hou-ao. I te wā i tiakina tūpatotia ngā papa rākau tawhito, i whakauru mōhiotia e rātou ngā whakaata me ngā kōpae āhua hou-ao, he whakakotahi tēnei o ngā āhuatanga hoahoa hanganga tawhito me te ao hurihuri.
