Ōtairongo

Pushing at the boundaries of contemporary Māori art, Ōtairongo seeks to interpret and represent the identity of wāhine Māori through audio-portraiture.

Springload

Dan Newman & Zak Brown

Klim Type Foundry

Springload designed a website for Klim Type Foundry that would give customers the opportunity to play with their type, test it, and read about it - putting the designer at the heart of the type browsing, buying, and learning experience. 

Jasmax

Clem Devine PDINZ & Roberta Johnson

Jasmax Brand Identity

The rebuilt brand identity for Jasmax reflects on their position as a bicultural design company.  It demonstrates their commitment to the Te Ao Māori worldview, expressed through their architectural style that is unique to Aotearoa New Zealand.
