The aim of “Where we Meet” was to create a new experience Tokaanu thermal pools that embodies Māori histories, in particular; the legend of Ngatoroirangi, Māori values and tikanga, whilst also supporting the users and Papatuaknuku simultaneously.

Where we Meet

A ‘break away’ from your busy life, located in Breaker Bay. The design process for Breakaway Bach was inspired by my love for painting and the time I spent living on a boat. The shape of paint blobs and the calming feeling of the ocean were combined to create a bach that felt relaxing and connected to nature.

 Breakaway Bach

This project looks at the ways settler-colonisation has shaped the exisiting suburban landscape of Titahi Bay, and the communities residing within it. It seeks to engage landscape-led ways of understanding place and reconnection within the rapidly changing context emerging from treaty-settlements and transfer to iwi ownership. This challenges the conventional capitalist (extractive) methods of site analysis, land ownership, and development practices that have disrupted and degraded the communities’ relationships with whenua.
