Rose Manor Playspace

Kūmānu was engaged to revitalise the landscape setting of Rose Manor, ensuring the site could be enjoyed safely and beautifully while respecting its heritage character. A key focus of the project was the careful protection of the existing capping layer that seals historic HAIL (Hazardous Activities and Industries List) material beneath the surface. All design decisions and construction methodologies were shaped around maintaining the integrity of this environmental safeguard, ensuring no disturbance to the underlying layers.

Working closely with the client and contractors, we developed a sensitive, detail-oriented landscape plan that refreshed the grounds without compromising site stability or safety.

New planting, circulation improvements, and gentle spatial refinements were introduced in ways that sit naturally within the established garden character, enhancing amenity while retaining the sense of place that residents value.

Through construction monitoring and project oversight, we ensured all on-site activities adhered to the environmental protection requirements. The completed works deliver a harmonious, accessible landscape that supports everyday enjoyment while upholding long-term stewardship of the land.
