Today is International Day of the World’s Indigenous Peoples. Indigenous people are the guardians of traditions and the custodians of the lands that carry stories older than time itself. Their cultures, languages and rituals are a testament to the human capacity for creativity, adaptation and the ability to harmoniously coexist with nature.
Indigenous architecture embodies principals of sustainability, community and deep respect for the natural environment. From the intricate patterns of Native American pueblos, to the innovative cooling systems of traditional African huts and the stilt houses of Southeast Asia, these designs showcase innovative solutions that have stood the test of time. As we strive to create spaces that are not only aesthetically pleasing but also sustainable and meaningful, let’s look to Indigenous practices for inspiration.
We are proud to showcase projects such as Wiigulga Sports Complex, Te Kaha Stadium, , BMO Centre and FNB Stadium as examples of the inspiring inclusive and considered design that takes place at Populous.
Let us honour this day by taking a moment to learn more about indigenous cultures, engage in meaningful conversations and deepen our understanding of the lands and communities in which we work. Learn more about our sustainable design initiatives: https://lnkd.in/eZc4bAUY
