Striking it Lucky
“When you are creating a product range that is the epitome of style, purity, eco-friendliness and class, your ‘home’ must exude the same properties.
In the case of Matakana Botanicals, the natural choice was Customkit. Owner Danvers Devereux considers himself lucky to have discovered the innovative ways Customkit uses wood.
It was imperative that the buildings would feature open, airy and natural looking spaces that would do justice as a show case for the Matakana Botanicals’ and it suppliers.
The fact Customkit uses wooden materials that are naturally grown, and sustainably harvested, meant they became an important part of the project.
Over the past three years Customkit worked with local builder Gus McKergow to develop a series of buildings dotted around the 1.82 hectare landscape. These include the main office, a warehouse, shop and cafe, a distillery and candle manufacturing area, and a combination implement shed and honey house.” – Danvers Devereux
