Motel Victoria | Commercial
South TaranakiThis two-storey commercial development is a purpose-built motel located in the heart of Hāwera. Designed by Slate Studio with construction starting late 2025 by Slate Construction, the project reflects a modern commercial aesthetic with high acoustic performance and thermal efficiency.
The design delivers premium visitor accommodation over two levels, complete with private balconies, acoustic treatments, fire-rated intertenancy walls, and accessible units on the ground floor. The structure incorporates high-performance construction systems including engineer-designed raft slabs, acoustic batten-and-cradle floors, and robust external cladding systems tailored to South Taranaki’s coastal climate conditions.
