A new way of doing things

Collett’s Corner is a new way of approaching property development where people work together to conceive and invest in what is built
in our towns and cities.

The building will be home to a combination of apartments, wellness centre, retail and hospitality. It is a place where community is built and strengthened.

The future of wellbeing

At the heart of the development is Ūkaipō, a holistic wellness sanctuary offering a carefully curated range of traditional and contemporary healing modalities. Ūkaipō means Mother, origin, source of sustenance; to return to one’s real home. The vision for this atea (space) is to return people to their truest sense of self. Its offerings and accompanying surrounds will give the community a place where the best in mental, physical, spiritual, emotional and family wellbeing can be found.

Director

Shareholder Appointed

Julie Villard is a French architect with 12 years of experience. She is a goal oriented person and not afraid of new challenges. Julie has a passion for architecture, technology and sustainability, building her skills and knowledge in France, Canada, Switzerland and for the past eight years, New Zealand. She is the welcoming face of the Council’s Eco design advisor new service, where people can consult on a range of projects from new builds to home renovations. She provides free and independent advice for individuals, professionals and within the Council. She advocates for a better living by creating healthier buildings. Her main drive is to encourage to do better and to do it now. Julie also ‘’walks the walk’’ - with her partner, they designed & built their home in Lyttelton, following the eco-friendly principles she provides during her free consultation. The couple was known in Lyttelton, as the ‘’bus people, with the spa’’ as they lived on site, in an 11m Bedford house-bus during the building process. Her 9-star home won a prestigious Architectural Award, the 2019 ADNZ Regional Winner in the category “residential compact new home”. Press Article here. Julie provided 'the Hive' (the winning design for the Collett's Corner competition) advice for sustainable design through her role at the Council during the second stage of the design competition. Since then, she has had a desire to be more involved in Collett's Corner. She believes in a society where we support each other. What Julie has to offer is her passion for building better buildings. She feels that the role as a director of Collett's Corner would be an opportunity to share her knowledge about how to create a sustainable design within a budget so that we get the best possible building for Lyttelton.

Project Updates
Property development is an iterative process, a design matures as it goes through the various stages. In each phase we refine the design based on learning new information. From time to time we send updates to keep the Collett's Corner shareholders and wider public informed about project's progress. The benefit of this approach is you get to see behind the scenes, you get to understand the many decisions and steps that lead to a development. AND you have the opportunity to share with us your insights as well so that we can advance the design together. If you would like to receive updates please register here.
