Through workshops involving Elders Consultations and Nyungar naming, Moodjar, alongside a Traditional Owners advisory group, led Landgate staff through the development of a Cultural Narrative for their new building at 1 Midland Square.

Moodjar were incredibly privileged to have Wardandi Nyungar, Yawuru and Ait Koedal artist Tyrown Waigana create a cultural narrative design to encapsulate Moodjar's work and values. Elements of this beautiful design can be seen throughout this website, as well as across Moodjar's branding and project collateral.
Tyrown shares the story behind the design:
"There is a forked tree with three circles on it representing Boodjar, Kaartdijin and Moort. All of these are connected by a bold white line showing connectivity of those core Moodjar themes. The pattern in the lines are of the moodjar tree flowering, displaying its uniqueness and vibrancy in bloom. Then we have interlocking patterning symbolising strength, protection, preservation and community. The yellow undulating shape is for Moodjar's fluid use of Noongar culture - being professional, academic, corporate, while retaining deep authenticity. The outer green is further abstract patterning for the moodjar tree brushes."
