Ko Dalman Architects tētahi o ngā whare hoahoa tino manaaki o Ōtautahi, ā, i hiahia ki te whakarite i te nuinga o tētahi whakawhiti studio ki te mahi i tētahi whakaingoa anō katoa.
I te tauira tuatahi, i mahi āta mahi mātau ki a Rākei Dalman me te tīma kia mārama ki te hītori 20 tau o te umanga: i reira mai ai, i te wāhi hoki e hiahia ana ki te haere. Ko ana tohutohu ki a mātau ko te waihanga i tētahi tuakiri parani e maia ana, e tū mai ana, e tohu ana i nga kanohi maha o te mahi a Dalman.
I hiahiatia e Dalman he kara taekaha tērā pea, nā reira i kōwhiria he whero Pantone kaha. Hei whakataurite ki te whero, i hiahiatia he whakamahinga whānui o te mokowā tōraro. Hei whakawhiti kōrero i te mahi rerekē a Dalman, i hangaia e mātou tētahi pūnaha reo tāupe i whakamahia i roto i te maukati moko.
