Tangaroa holds a significant placement at the heart of this home, deeply embedding this amazing family's love and connection with the ocean. Tangaroa is the very fabric of this living space. Being the Māori god of the sea and a son of Ranginui and Papatūānuku, Tangaroa symbolizes a profound bond between the sky, the earth, and the sea. This amazing carving isn't just a decorative piece; it's a central focal point that embodies their reverence for the ocean and the significant cultural heritage of this land. The careful placement of Tangaroa influences the home's design and enhances the energy, promoting a lifestyle that respects and integrates these natural elements. Our conscious decision to craft this home around Tangaroa permeates daily life, embraces the environment, and serves as a beautiful reminder of our connection to the natural and spiritual worlds, reinforcing identity and values in our everyday movements.
