Commencing this eBook, I embark on a journey through the realm of modern Māori-inspired architecture in New Zealand (NZ). The pages are graced with a visual feast of cutting-edge structures that seamlessly incorporate traditional Māori shapes, forms, patterns, and colours into their contemporary designs. The voyage continues as we delve into the intriguing fusion of modernism and Māori architecture. This fusion showcases the harmonious coexistence of tradition and innovation in architectural endeavours. Furthermore, we embark on a unique exploration of extravagant geometric shapes, such as ellipses, parabolas, and hyperbolas, brought to life through the wonders of AI on PlaygroundAI.com. Additionally, we venture into the realm of online software like SketchUp and its role in the intricate design of buildings, where hyperbolic forms take centre stage. Don't overlook the captivating resource titled 'Architect Antonio Gaudi Transforms Paradigms,' which sheds light on the mesmerising world of curvilinear architecture and its influence on product design. Without further ado, let's embark on this captivating journey by immersing ourselves in the world of modern Māori-inspired designs. CITATION: Van Zyl, W. (2023).

The Māori worldview, deeply rooted in indigenous New Zealand culture, shapes how architectural design is conceptualised, executed, and experienced. It is a holistic perspective that interweaves spiritual, cultural, and environmental dimensions, resulting in architecture that reflects the Māori connection to the land, ancestors, and the spiritual realm. What type of unique building, house, landmark, chapel, church, marae, or shade space would you design to reflect and represent your worldview? I am referring to symbolism-related shapes, forms, patterns, and colours. What would be the main shapes and forms you will use to convey your worldview in a building? In this short eBook, I explore a Māori worldview and architecture in a New Zealand context. I briefly look at other worldviews for architectural design.
