Sustainable Design at the Heart of Omana Luxury Villa
Sustainable Design at the Heart of Omana Luxury Villa
When owners Cobus and Silmara Scholtz set foot on Waiheke Island, their initial dream was to build a retreat for themselves.
Yet, when they realised the land’s true potential, their vision quickly transformed into the development of four luxury villas; Villa Serenity, Villa Haven, Villa Surrender and Villa Joy, built in harmony with the breathtaking landscape.
Everyone involved in the project was hand-picked for their renowned quality and passion for working in harmony with nature. This ethos was ingrained in every aspect of the build, from the design, right down to protecting the furnishings with environmentally safe and non-toxic products.
Highly regarded New Zealand architect Pete Bossley was behind the design. His work exceeded the highest sustainability standards, using only environmentally certified materials, bought locally where possible.
The project also included the restoration of the surrounding Omana forest. Exotics, weeds and pests were cleared and a native planting program was developed to create a thriving environment for wildlife—one which has already brought the tuis back.
The same level of environmental consideration was also required for the interior.
With a flair for interior design, co-founder Silmara Scholtz selected bespoke pieces for each of the four luxury villas.
It was essential to protect each piece including rugs, chairs, headboards, daybeds and drapery from spills, mould, sun damage and of course wear and tear—especially in an environment where staying in is as much a part of the experience as venturing out.
Premium Surface Protection was chosen to treat all the chairs, rugs, daybeds, headboards and drapery, with MicroSeal and Fiber Protector, recommended for their effectiveness and environmentally safe, non-toxic properties.
Together, every decision the founders’ made illustrates their commitment to sustainability and ensures Omana Luxury Villa will continue to provide incredible experiences for its guests for a very long time to come.
