EXPRESSION OF MĀORI HERITAGE AND PRESENCE Māori as mana whenua have a long connection with the wider area and the waterfront, and this continues today. Māori art and Māori culture are tightly woven together, and cultural history and connection to the area is reflected throughout the design and form of the Precinct. PRINCIPLES: •
Ahuriri Māori cultural heritage and tikanga will be woven into the fabric of the Precinct through spatial design, building and public realm design, use of materials, and storytelling.
•
Ahuriri Māori are engaged through the development process, and their voice is heard and reflected in the design of spaces.
•
Cultural values, artwork, and the history of our people in the region are integrated into the Precinct.
