Together As One

6 years ago by

Our thoughts are with Aotearoa’s Muslim community, the people of Christchurch, and everyone directly affected by Friday’s horrific events. Design Assembly is all about community – celebrating and supporting all New Zealanders in our diversity and individual pathways. Everyone is welcome.
We are in admiration of this thoughtful and poignant expression of support and unity from Christchurch Design Studio McCarthy.

“As a nation we cannot be divided by the tragic events that took place in Christchurch on March 15 2019. We are many communities, we are many people, and we need to stand together as one.”

As Together as One, McCarthy created the Kotahitanga pin as a symbol of our togetherness and solidarity. It’s a way we can all wear and show support for the people within our communities and the nation. It’s an unspoken gesture of acceptance and unity. It is a beautifully considered design. The enamel pin 21mm wide and 19mm tall. It is black enamel on a gold raised edge with a clasp on the back.

“As the events on Friday 15 March unfolded around us, we decided we wanted to do something to help and give back to those affected. These pins are our way of doing that. 100% of proceeds will go to Victim Support NZ”

We love everything about this project, and strongly urge you to pre-order your Kotahitanga pin and wear your support with pride.
