We acknowledge the Gayamaygal and Garigal people, the traditional custodians of the land we now associate with the Northern Beaches — from Manly to Palm Beach and the Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park — the land upon which our studio stands and many of the projects we have worked on have been built. We pay our deepest respect to their elders – past, present and emerging and recognise their strong connection and continuing relationship with land and Country.
