Purpose-built student space at the University of Canterbury featuring high-quality artificial grass landscaping for relaxation and aesthetic appeal.
University of Canterbury: Haere-roa The purpose-built space for students that is vibrant and architectural, with landscaping to match.
The challenge
Head of Grounds at the University of Canterbury was positive that artificial grass was the best option for landscaping the newly built Haere-roa building. The university had used artificial grass on a project several years earlier and had been underwhelmed with the quality of the product. The groundsman was determined that a better quality product could be sourced, and everyone agreed that SmartGrass was just what they were looking for.
The solution
Using architectural drawings supplied by the university, SmartGrass could quickly provide a quote for the two raised lawn areas. Designed with student relaxation in mind, it was important that the chosen turf was soft to sit or lie on. Oasis 35 was selected for its neat appearance and comfort. SmartGrass worked alongside Goom Landscaping to complete the project on time and within budget for the university and everyone, especially the students were very pleased with the result.
