He whakamātautau hāngai i te kōkōwai mō ngā whare ā-whakamātautau

Ko te kōkōwai he kōpū kaha tonu hei whakamātautau mō ngā tāwhai o ngā whare, ā, i te nuinga ko ngā kura, ngā whare wānanga, me ēnei atu whare tāone nui. Ko Paia hoki he pātaka e whakamātautau ana i ngā huinga tāwhai kōkōwai kaha. Ka taea ngā huinga tāwhai nei te whakamātautau i tēnei whare kia ata, kia kaha rānei. Ina ko ngā kaiwhakamātautau e whakamātautau ana kōpūpū parae , kōrā ngā wāhanga e āwhina ana i te hanga i ngā whare e kore noa i te āhua pai — engari e tū tonu ana. Kāore te nuinga o ngā tāngata e mārama ana i te pānga matua o ēnei āhua wāhi. I tēnei wā, he rite tonu ngā āhua wāhi ki te whakamātau i ngā whare mai i ngā huarere, ā, he whakamātau anō hoki i te āhua o tēnei whare. Ko ngā āhua wāhi o te kōkōwai, i te whakamātautau tika i ngā āhua me ngā kōpae, e whakamārama ai i tēnei whare āhua kāore i te āhua, hei tohu mō te wāhi.

He aha ngā mea katoa e mātau ai te kaiwhakamahi whare?

He maha ngā mea e tātai ai ngā kaiwhakamahi whare i te whakamahinga i ngā whare me ngā āhua wāhi o te kōkōwai. Ko tēnei, he maha ngā tae, ngā āhua, me ngā whakamātautau o te kōkōwai e hāngai ana ki te āhua o tēnei whare. Arā, ka taea e ngā kaiwhakamahi whare te whakamārama i ngā āhua o tēnei whare. Me whiriwhiri koe i te kōkōwai tika kohatu e tātai ana i te āhua me ngā mahi o te whare. Mō ngā kura, pērā i te hiahia ki tēnei āhua māmā, pūpaku, he tino pai te kōkōwai mā. I te wāhi e rere ana, ko ngā whare wānanga pea e hiahia ana ki tēnei āhua rerekē ake, ā, hou ake.

Ko tēnā anō he take e tātai ai, arā ko te whaiwhai o te kōkōwai i ngā āhuatanga āhuarangi rerekē. He tino pūmau te kōkōwai, ahakoa he rerekē ngā whakamātautau mai i te ua, i te hukapapa, i ngā panonikanga o te hāuru. Me whakaaro ngā kaiwhakamahi whare i te whaiwhai o te kōkōwai i te āhuarangi o tēnei rohe. Mō ngā wāhi wāhi o waho e wetewete ana, he tika ake te whiriwhiri i te kōkōwai e tātai ana i te wai. Me whakaaro hoki i te āhua o te ngā pou toka e whakamahinga ana. Ko te whakamahinga tika he ara hei whakamātau i te wai kia kāore ai te uru mai, ā, hei whakamātau hoki kia tū tonu te āhua o waho i ngā tau.

Ki te mutunga, he āhua matua te whaiwhai i te whakamātautau. Ināianei, kei te whakaaro ngā kairanga i ngā rākau i tēnei wā i tēnei wā i te taiao. Ko te kōpūtanga he rākau o te taiao e whakamahinga ana i te ara tika. Ka whakamāmā i te pānga o te hāngā ki te hāngā o te kōpūtanga ngā kōpūtanga. Ko tēnei he mea nui ki ngā kiritaki maha ināianei. Mō ngā kairanga, ko te whakamārama i tēnei whakamātautau kōpūtanga he mea nui atu i te whakamārama i te hāngā kia pai ake, ā, he mea anō hoki kia whakamāmā ake i te taiao, he tohu hoki tēnei o te aroha ki tō tātou whenua.

Ināianei mai i Neolith: Te Whakamāhi o ngā Kōpūtanga Kōpūtanga i ngā Hāngā Whakamātautau

Te kōpūtanga—te rākau whakamātautau mō ngā whare tāwhai i ngā rākau āhua. I tōna pūmau ake, he rākau pai hoki hei whakamātautau. Ko tēnei tēnā, ko te kōpūtanga e whakaahua ana hei rākau pūmau, he rākau pūmau nui, ā, he rākau e noho ana i ngā tau mānia. Ko tēnei he rākau āhua, ā, kua whakamātautia kē kia tū tonu i tēnei wā! Ahakoa he whakamātautau, ka taea e te kōpūtanga te whakamātautau i ngā huarere kino, i ngā ua nui, i te whakamātautau o te rā. Kāore ngā whare e whakamātautia ana i te kōpūtanga i te āhua o ngā whare hou tonu i tēnei wā, engari ka tū tonu i tēnei pūmau i ngā tau maha i muri mai.

Ā, ānei hoki ngā whakamātautau e whakamātautia ana. Ka taea pea te whakamātautai i te whare i te tau mātāmua, me te whakamātautai i te whare i te tau hāngai. Ko tēnei i te rākau kōpūtanga he rākau pūmau i ngā āhuatanga tāwhai. Ko tēnei whare e whakamātautia ana i ngā āhuatanga tāwhai, he iti ngā hiko e hiahiatia ana hei whakamātautai, hei whakamātautai. Ka taea pea te whakamātautai i ngā utu hiko, he whakamātautai nui mō ngā kura me ngā whare wānanga e whakamātautia ana i ngā utu.

Ko ngā āhua kōpū kōkōrangi hoki e taea ana te whakamātautau i te whakamāhuatanga i te nuinga o ngā kōpū. He pūmahara ki te whakamāhuatanga, he pūmahara hoki ki te whakamāhuatanga, he uara āhua matua, i tēnei wā i te rahi o ngā huarahi e whakamāhinga ana i ngā kura. I tēnei āhua, he māmā ake te whakamāhinga i te kōkōrangi. He iti noa ngā whakamāhinga i te whakamāhinga i te wāhi, ka taea te whakamāhinga i te āhua kia rite tonu ki te āhua tuatahi. Ko tēnei he whāinga iti rawa i te whakamāhinga, he pūrākau pai rawa mo ngā whare whakamātautau – he uara tēnei i te whakamāhinga i ngā whare kia rite tonu ki te āhua pai.

Ko ngā āhua kōpae hoki he whakamārama pai i te aukati i ngā raru pūmau ki te wai. Mēnā ka uru mai te wai o te taiao ki roto o te whare, ka whai hua ai ngā whānanga pērā i te rūmāhi me ngā rūmāhi iti. Engari ina whakamāhinga kia tika ngā kōpae, he rākau whakamāni ia. Ko tēnei hei āwhina i te whare kia māmā, kia ora hoki. I te mutunga, ina whiriwhiri ngā kaiwhakamahi i ngā kōpae mō ngā wāhi wāhi, kāore noa ngā kaiwhakamahi i te whiriwhiri i ngā kōpae hei whakamātautau i ngā āhua, engari ko ngā kōpae hoki he kōpae tino mātua, he roa tonu hoki, ā, he māmā hoki te tiaki. Ina whakaaro koe i ngā tauira, kāore he whakamāharahara kia kitea ai te whakamātautau kōpae i ngā whare ā-wharekore i tēnei wā.

Te ratonga mō ngā kōpae kōpae kounga teitei mai i hea? Kei hea ngā kōpae kōpae mō ngā wāhi wāhi i ngā rārangi nui?

Mehemea e whakaaro ana koe ki te hanga i tēnei rānei te whakamāhinga i tēnei whare ā-whakamātautau, he pai ake te whakamāhi i te kōkōrī (limestone) me te whakamāhi i tēnei hei whāriki (façade) (te mata wāhi o waho). Engari, kei hea ngā kōkōrī pai? He whāinga pai te haere ki ngā wāhi e hāngai ana i ngā kōkōrī. Ko ngā wāhi nei he rārangi o ngā kōkōrī rerekē, nō reira ka taea e koe te whiriwhiri i tēnei e tika ana mō tōu mahi. Me whakamārama kia pūmau ngā wāhi o ngā kōkōrī. Ko te uara he mea matua, nā te mea ko ngā kōkōrī o te uara teitei e roa atu ana i tēnei me te pai ake i tēnei. Ko Paia he wāhi e whakamāhi ana i ngā kōkōrī māmā, mātātoko hoki mō ngā whare ā-whakamātautau.

Ka taea hoki te kite i te kōkōwai i āhua atu ngā wāhi, tae atu ki te ipurangi i rō whakamātua ai i te rōpū ‘ngā kōpae hanga’. Ka taea e koe te whakamātautau i ngā momo kōkōwai rereke me ēnei utu i te ipurangi. I tēnei wā i tō kōrero i ngā kōpae waka i te ipurangi, me mātua whai mātauranga kia tika ngā whakamārama i te pae ipurangi o ngā wāhanga waka kua whakamāhi. Tirohia ngā whakamātautau a ngā kiritaki kē, kia mōhio ai koe he pai rawa ngā kōpae e hoko ana koe. Me pātai anō koe i te kaihoko mai i hea te kōkōwai; he hiahia koe kia whakapono ai koe ko te kōkōwai mai i tēnei kōpae kōkōwai kua whakamāhi.

Ā, mē kaha tonu koe ki te tātai i ngā kōhanga kōhatu o tōu rōhe. I tēnei wā, ka taea e koe te tātai i ngā kōhatu kōpū, i tēnei wā, me whakamātautau i tō rātou kounga i tēnei wā. Kāore pea he raru kia hoko kōhatu kōpū mai i te kōhanga kōhatu, ā, ka whakamāmā i tōu moni. Ā, ko ngā kōhatu o tōu rōhe pea he rite ake i ngā āhua o tōu rōhe, ā, ka taea hoki te whakamārama i te wāhi o te whare. I te mahinga i ngā kōhatu kōpū, ī rāhui tonu i ngā whare herehere, me whakamārama koe ki ngā tāngata e mōhio ana i ngā kōhatu. Ka taea e rātou te āwhina i a koe ki te whiriwhiri i ngā kōhatu kōpū tika mō ōu hiahia. I te whakamānawa a Paia i ngā hua pūmau me ngā ratonga kiritaki, ka taea e koe te rapu i ngā whakamārama kōhatu kōpū mō tōu whare herehere.

Ngā whai hua o ngā whakamārama kōhatu kōpū mō ngā whare herehere

Ko ngā āhua o ngā whare whakamātautau he tauira kotahi i tēnei wāhi i tēnei whakamātautau i te whakamātautau i te kōkōwai, e tū ana ngā whakamātautau maha. Ko te tāwhai o te kōkōwai he tāwhai nui. Ko te kōkōwai he kōpae tāwhai, ā, e taea ana te whakamātautau i ngā āhua hauāriki o te āhua. He kōpae kākāriki, he kōpae hau, ā, he kōpae anō hoki i te rā. Nā reira, ko ngā whare i hanga mai i te kōkōwai e taea ana te ora tonu i te wā roa, ā, ko ngā utu mō te whakamātua, te whakamātua rānei i muri i tēnei. I te kōkōwai o Paia, ka taea e koe te whakamārama kia pai ai ngā āhua o tōu whare, ā, kia tāwhai tonu hoki i te wā roa.

He whakamātautau anō hoki te kōkōwai i tēnei whakamātautau i te whakamātautau. He maha ngā tae me ngā āhua o te kōkōwai, nō reira, e taea ana te rapu i te tika hei whakamātautau i te āhua o tōu whare. He kura, he whare tapuhi, he whare kāwanatanga rānei, ka tāwhai te kōkōwai i te āhua o te whare. Ko tēnei āhua pai he whakamātautau pai i te tuatahi, ā, he whakamātautau ki ngā manuhiri.

Ko te kōkōwai hoki he kōhatu whai pānga pai ki te taiao. He kōhatu tāngata, ā, he iti ake ngā pānga kino ki te taiao i te whakamātua, i ngā kōhatu ānō. Nō reira, he whāinga pai te kōkōwai mō ngā rōpū e hiahia ana kia whakaatu ai tā rātou aro atu ki te whenua. I runga anō i te pūkenga o te kōkōwai hei whakamāmā i te hōhi o ngā whare, ka taea pea te whakamāmā i ngā utu hiko mai i ngā mātātoko hōhi i ngā wā hōhi. Ko tēnei he whāinga tāwhai-tāwhai mō tāu rātou tauāki me te ao.

Ki te mutunga, he maha ngā whakamārama o te kōpūtanga o te kōpūtanga. Kāore he rerekētanga i ngā whakamārama e hiahiatia ana hei whakamārama i tēnei āhua hou. He iti noa ngā wā e hiahiatia ana kia whakamāhinga ai kia mā, kia mākū, kia mākū. Ko tēnei he whakamārama pūmau mō ngā rōpū e kore e whai wāhi ki te whakamāhinga o ngā whare, i te kore o ngā wā, o ngā moni hei whakamāhinga. I te wā e whakamāhi ana i tēnei āhua i ngā whare, ko ngā kōpūtanga o te kōpūtanga he tāwhai, he āhua pai, he whakamāhinga māmā, he whakamāhinga hauārangi. Ko te whakamāhi i ngā kōpūtanga o Paia he whakamāhi pai mō tāu āpōpō.

He Rautaki Matua

Nō reira, kua rite koe ki te whakamāhi i te kōpūtanga i te kōpūtanga o tōu whare. He ao hou tonu tēnei, ā, nā konei he ara hei āwhina i a koe ki te haere i tēnei ao. Ko te tuatahi he whakamātautau, he whakamātautau i tōu whare. Whakamāhi i tēnei wā i tēnei kaiwhakamātautau e mōhiotia ana ngā āhua o te kōpūtanga. Ka taea e ia te āwhina i a koe ki te whakamātautau i ngā āhua e whakamāhi ana i ngā āhua o te kōpūtanga. Me whakaaro anō pea ngā āhua o te kōpūtanga, me ngā āhua o te whare.

Kātahi ka whakaaro ki te āhua o tō kōrero i tēnei kōpū. Ko Paia, i tēnei wā kua tuhia mai, he nui ngā kōwhiringa. He mea matua te whakamātau i te momo me te tae o te kōpū e tātari ana kia whai whāinga ki tōu whare. I muri i tō kōwhiringa, tīmata i te tono i ngā whakamātautau mai i ngā kaiwhakārahi. Ko te whakamātautau i ngā utu me te mātauranga i ngā mea e taea ana e koe te utu, he huarahi hei whakamāngungu i ngā moni. Tātai hoki kia mātua te whakamātautau i te pūkenga o te kōpū, kia mātua te whakamātautau i tana roa o te wā.

I tēnei wā, i tēnei kōpū i tātai mai, he mea matua te mahi tahi i tēnei āhuatanga o te hanga. Me hiahia koe i ngā kaimahi pūkenga e mōhiotia ana i te whakaputanga i te kōpū. Ko tēnei pea he whakamātautau i ngā kaiwhakamahi kōpū, i ngā kaiwhakamahi kōpū, ā, e mōhiotia ana i te whakamāhi i te kōpū. Ka whakamātua ia kia whakaputangia tēnei kōpū i te whare i te taha wāhi, kia mātua te kaha me te āhua.
