Derek is a Professor of Architecture specialising in Māori Designed Environments and the application of contemporary manufacturing technologies in architecture. An expert and teacher in advanced digital tools (generative software) and robotics, he heads SITUA (Site of Indigenous Technologies Understanding Alliance), Indigenous Material Domains (IMD) and Corporate Spheres ‐ Indigenous Workspaces, all Masters level research labs. The labs play a significant role in the ‘re‐indigenising’ of architectural knowledge through a renewed exploration of customary methods of spatial organisation (tikanga/kawa), engineered structures, Māori geometries and materials utilising
computation and digital fabrication. Derek is also a Principal Investigator for the MacDiarmid Institute and is a researcher with the Robinson Space Program.
