Djinjama brought a Country Centred Design Approach to the development of The Kingʹs School Masterplan and STEAM Building. The approach provided guidance to those developing The King’s School to ensure Country is at the heart of all decisions and actions of design, planning and development on Country. The methodology responded to the deep histories and narratives of place and reflected on culture and community. The purpose of this approach is to guide Country-centred Design principles to ensure the outcomes for Country are positive.
Djinjama honours our connections to Country, community, culture and kin through our work. Djinjama’s projects actively interact with lands, waters and air, and as such we actively protect the rights of Country to be healthy in our work. We respect Traditional Custodians who have long cared for Country and aim to elevate First Voices in all our work. We are grateful to Elders and Knowledge Holders for their continued sharing of wisdom, story, language, and knowledge.
