2. HRK DESIGNS
WE HRK Designs are experts in designing and re-building. We have done
so for the past 10 years. As our motto says “Your Dream our Goal” Here are
so examples of places that will be in the New developed Went Worth Point.
Discovery Centre Information Centre
Community Centre

Community Centre
With this centre we have used recycled wood. When we demolished
buildings to make this site we used the previous wood from them. Also
using wood from dying or dead trees. This building also has a thing called
Geo thermal heating. This is used to heat appliances in better ways that
aren`t harming the environment.
Information Centre
This centre is energy efficient. It has solar panels on the roof, catching the
sun rays and providing electricity. The windows on this building have been
especially placed to create a feel of open space. It is also letting natural in.
4. SUSTAINABILITY
When planning to design buildings, they can have can have an
extensive impact on the environment. At HRK Designs we
make sure that everything we do is sustainable. We want
things to be sustainable for three reasons. 1. We`re making
towns and homes for people to live in that will survive into the
future, not just fall apart, 2. We are creating a better places
and ways for people to live, 3. We are helping the
environment.
We HRK Designs have also found that by going green we can
set an example and take the lead, we can make a change of
how the world lives. So as a company this is the way that we
want to go and this is why sustainability is important to us.
6. WENTWORTH POINT
This is a map of the future Wentworth Point that HRK designs have planned.
As we have planned out this area we have kept in mind the design principals.
Firstly we have made sure that we have not destroyed any nature such as
trees, flora etc, however keeping and preserving the ….. Secondly making
sure all our buildings are made out of recycled materials.

7. SUSTAINABILITY 1
An aspect of sustainable design I have used is what I like to
call self sustaining food source. I have created a area for all
the organic fruit and vegetables to grow. This organic garden is
good for the environment because I am not using any harsh
chemicals that could cause any harmful effects. Instead, i am
using natural fertilizers and compost materials. Also I have
installed a drip irrigation system to water my garden. This uses
my recycled grey water system form my water tanks.
8. SUSTAINABILITY 2
At the top of my building there are solar panels. This way I am being
energy efficient. These solar panels soak up the sun rays and converts
this into energy to heat the water used for many things within this
building. The solar panels I have installed are highly sensitive. They are
able to manoeuvre around in order to capture maximum sunlight.
9. SUSTAINABILITY 3
The third and final sustainability design incorporated in my building are grey
water tanks. By using these tanks I am being water efficient. These tanks
collect and store rain water that comes from the roof. When it rains the
water goes into the gutters falling into down pipes leading to the tanks. This
water can now be used for many things, such as watering my organic
garden, flushing the toilets, watering the grass and washing staff uniforms.
The combined capacity of these two tanks is 400, 000 L.
10. CONCLUSION
At HRK designs we have a vision, that vision is that we want to
create a connected community for people to live in. This new
community will be a place were all ages and cultures can
come together and enjoy the serenity of the new community.
We also want this town to be the start of change. We want to
change the way we live, by setting the example of how to live a
life a luxury while not harming the environment.
