Taranaki Project

Alyssa Barr is an Architectural Designer based in the small rural town of Hāwera, in the North Island of New Zealand. She worked with Parkwood Doors to bring one of her recent residential projects to life. Alyssa and her client chose one of our aluminium styles, the HV3, as the home’s external door. “The contemporary look of the Parkwood Doors HV3, and its horizontal lines, complemented the home’s other surfaces.”, said Alyssa. Parkwood Doors’ aluminium styles are “strong and hard-wearing, so they can withstand all the weather conditions that Taranaki (a coastal, mountainous region in the North Island of New Zealand) is known for.” Alyssa chose Parkwood Doors for the “…quality product and service they provide. Their innovative products, like the Thermtek Aluminium doors, are esthetically pleasing, while creating warm homes that are H1 compliant.” “The door’s thermally-enhanced properties reduce condensation, and work with the new H1 requirement.” Custom powder coating allowed Alyssa to match the home’s external door, the HV3, with the home’s aluminium windows and its roof. The project’s refined, modern, and minimalistic colours and textures matched perfectly with Parkwood Doors. “The contemporary look of the HV3, and its horizontal lines, complemented the home’s other surfaces.”
