Our intent

  • Meaningfully integrate public art and contain design features intended solely for human delight and the celebration of culture, spirit, and place.

This is about raising our view about what life should be and doing it for the feeling. Matewai ana te whatu i te tirohanga—a vision at which the eyes glisten.
