With a long stretch of white sand, Waihi Beach is one of New Zealand's safest and most loved beaches. A few minutes' walk from the beach, and close to a bustling village, the Waihi Beach Residential Development includes 17 new residential lots organised around green communal spaces that are designed to high standards. The masterplan for the Waihi Beach Development has been organised in such a way as to ensure that the character of Waihi Beach is preserved and a strong community is encouraged, with a balance between good visibility as well as a sense of privacy.
In creating the masterplan and related guidelines, our aim is to foster community engagement and promote interaction between residents, while creating a unified and aesthetically pleasing neighbourhood. This development also includes the creation of architectural and landscaping guidelines.

For the vision of this development to be achieved, key design principles have been identified for both the communal areas and the individual lots in the development, ensuring that each household can enjoy a relationship with the shared spaces, and in turn with the neighbourhood environment.
