Djinjama Indigenous Corporation was established by Dr Danièle Hromek (Budawang/Yuin) in 2020 after many years of consulting, practice and research. Offering cultural design and research for projects in the built environment, Djinjama brings Country into the centre of the design process in order to substantially affect Indigenous rights and elevate culture in the built environment and bring health to Country...
In this design process Country is centred as Country both holds and envelopes all entities including humans. In fact, humans are understood as just one of the myriads of entities that collaborate together, including flora and fauna, ecology and the celestial. We understand that our Ancestors developed cultural relational generative iterative collaborative communal processes of design through their care and management of Country, and as their descendants we have the opportunity to approach design using this ancient methodology in which Country is at the centre.
