Studio Waru Information

E kitea ai ngā taonga o te moana, me mākū koe. If you seek the treasures of the ocean, you’d better get wet. "Getting fully immersed in a purposeful and fruitful project has at its core the need for some sort of visceral experience. There is no way to avoid this. Staying theoretical, staying at a distance isn’t going to cut it."—Dr. Hinemoa Elder. At Studio Waru we believe there is no other way to contribute and add true value than to be all-in. This deepens our understanding, our connections, our experience in this world. Studio Waru, formerly Studio Acht, has been through many phases since we established ourselves in April 2020. We have had a wonderful team of tāngata whenua and tāngata Tiriti wāhine come and go as a result of our ever-changing environment that we exist in. We have had the privilege of working in partnership with many people across aligned brands. For now, Britt sits as the sole designer and director at the helm of Studio Waru.
