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).

Has your world been turned upside-down at some point? Please take a look at the innovative and creative ideas in this article. What do you see? What ideas do you have? What would it be if I asked you to develop a unique idea or concept for a spatial design? How can Māori shapes, forms, patterns and colours be embedded in a spatial design? That is the question teachers of Design and Visual Communication (DVC) will ask their students next year (2024). Why? Because they will be doing a new curriculum in New Zealand (High School context). Designers, architects, artists, teachers, and students will benefit from this article. Please take a look at the CAMERA OBSCURA, created by three different people - a photographer, a sculptor, and an architect. I include a picture of this outstanding creative effort by three artists in New Zealand. Don't miss this brilliant design. To whet your appetite - about the CAMERA OBSURA. The Whangārei Camera Obscura is an interactive sculpture on the Hātea Loop walk (Whangarei - New Zealand). A camera obscura is a darkened room with a small hole or lens at one side through which an image is projected onto a wall or table opposite the hole. Visitors can enter the shell-like structure to find a surprising "upside-down projection room" inside showing the celebrated Bascule bridge, Te Matau ā Pohe and its surroundings, complete with vehicles, boats, people, scudding clouds and flowing water. The attraction offers visitors and residents simple yet wonderful phenomena of light projection and educational opportunities. Visitors can adjust the image using a movable aperture on the wall of the camera obscura. It is one of only a handful of obscura sculptures worldwide and is among the largest.
