The simplicity of a small footprint building with design-led aesthetics and modern comfort.
Buildings designed by people, for people.
Arka is the result of 15 years of research and development in efficient architecture. The ‘kit-of-parts’ approach brings together a collection of pre-engineered components that ultimately define the finished building. Through clever design, this systems-based solution offers all the benefits that come with volumetric construction.
Shorter lead times and faster development process.
Increased overall quality and consistency, using a cost-effective blueprint.
Tight budget control, resulting in consistent cost projections.
Resource and environmentally friendly long term, with no plaster board.
Why Arka
Carbon Committed.
Arka homes have a positive impact on people and planet. Crafted with sustainable building materials that are locally sourced, Arka production will be carbon neutral by 2030.
Off the Grid.
The Lunar module by Arka gives true meaning to life without limits. Connect this clever landing module to create a self-sufficient lifestyle, including a water-tank, solar power and storage.
Small Home, not a Tiny House.
The Arka team prove what smart design can do in small spaces. Scale, flexibility and function come together to deliver liveable homes - not tiny houses.
For People, by People.
Conceived by the renown team at Wingate Architects, Arka homes bring a clever architectural approach to this simple living solution. A smart kit-of-parts system combined with contemporary interiors result in well-finished homes that reset the bar for modular living.
One, Two or Ten.
Create a collective, or start small. Arka homes grow with you, your family, your business and your community.
Speed and Process.
Arka's streamlined modular system simplifies the design process - removing much of the stress, expense and time in building. Under the experienced hand of Arka Construction, new modular homes can be delivered to site in as little as 4 months.
Quality, Without the Price Tag.
Arka challenges the idea that being economical means compromising on design. High-quality materials have been selected for longevity, while efficient construction methods and long-term sustainable practices tie together to support Arka's commitment to value.
Funding.
Funding a modular home often requires specialist knowledge. Let one of our team know you're exploring options and we'll put you directly in touch with a specialist who knows the ins and outs of the approval process.
An Arka for All.
Arka finds purpose for its buildings in many corners of the country - addressing the belief that everyone has the right to live well. First homes or special housing, off-grid living or beachside bach, explore the ideal Arka to suit need and budget.
We set out to address some of the cost, speed and accessibility barriers facing New Zealanders seeking new places to live or work.”
