Animation and visual effect project

Whakapapa, the ontological and epistemological influence it has, guides me to honour the whakaaro of my tūpuna in the way I work as a designer, in order to create better futures for my mokopuna. This sets me up to create meaningful connections and forge strong, equitable, and impactful solutions, that design with people, not for them. Whakapapa forces us to think in ways that are in contradiction with western intuition. As designers, it requires us to shift away from being the perpetuators of resource exploitation and promulgators of mass consumerism. Instead, it requires us to be kaitiaki of the future.

Peregrina is an exploration into the role that structure plays in the type legibility. This sans-serif typeface seeks to redefine the boundaries of modern day's 'Akzidenz-Grotestk'(s)'.
