Explore how sustainability and design converge to shape a resilient future for Aotearoa. Drawing on twenty years of practice, this session invites designers to move beyond linear, extractive models toward cyclical, regenerative systems. Using Te Takarangi as a strategic compass rather than a visual symbol, we will examine how to anchor creative work in whakapapa and ecological context. Discover how this dynamic framework provides a shared language for collaboration, guiding diverse disciplines toward ethical reciprocity and long-term impact. Learn to navigate complexity by orienting your practice toward the enduring care of both people and whenua.
