Our approach combined conceptual design, moodboards, and character development grounded in kaupapa Māori values. We developed Uenukukōpako to embody resilience, strength, and determination, and Rangiteaorere to represent humility, wisdom, strategy, and leadership through service. Alongside these, we explored wāhine concepts to bring balance, strength, and diversity into the visual language. Each design was shaped to reflect the kura’s tikanga and kawa with cultural accuracy and resonance, supported by illustrated concept sheets to guide future creative development. The outcome was a set of powerful visual concepts that captured both the strength and humility of Mokoia’s tūpuna.
