Tamatamaarangi Whiting

Ka mua, ka muri

I ngā tapuwae o ngā mātua

Ko Tamatamaarangi Whiting ahau.
He uri ahau nō Te Whānau-ā-Apanui.
He kaihoahoa whenua, he kaihoahoa hoki ahau.

I’m a landscape architect and designer based in Sydney on Gadigal Land. I work between two practices, consulting with SCAPE Studio in New York on large-scale urban projects and running Makacolab, an Indigenous micro-practice working across Te Moananui-a-Kiwa.

More recently, I founded ReThinkWelly, an urban futures initiative that identifies underutilised space and connects community ideas to reimagine what’s possible for Te Whanganui-a-Tara.

I’m the Kaitaupua for Ngā Aho, a board member of ISAPD (Indigenous Society of Architects, Planners and Designers), and an adviser to the Lo-TEK Office and LANDFRAME. Being Kaitaupua lets me stay connected and serve the kaupapa at home while living away.

Always learning, moving, creating, and finding new ways to connect people, place and ideas.
