Flaxmere Park Toilets
By Citrus Studio Architecture
A compact building in a park environment, this project follows on from the Clifton Beach toilet project, simplifying and further developing the idea of separating wall and roof to provide air and light and allowing users to experience the park from inside.
Precast concrete wall panels, chosen for their robust properties, are softened and decorated by the use of colour in recesses cast into the concrete, inspired from the colours and patterns of variegated flax.
A low concrete wall in front of the toilets provides a backbone for a bench seat and drinking fountain, and creates a buffer or ‘lobby’ to the toilets themselves.

About the
Professional
Citrus Studio Architecture is a practice based in Napier, working in the fields of public, commercial and residential architecture. Pride is taken in a collaborative approach to design, working alongside clients, consultants and the construction team to ensure the best result for the client and for the project.
Citrus Studio aspires to produce buildings that work, that belong, and that add to the environment in which they sit.
Function, economy, beauty and sustainability are all benchmarks that every design is tested against as it is developed. These concerns are addressed from the earliest concept ideas through to the detail design stages, where they are embodied in the construction details of the project.
