The project is being personally funded by the Honourable Linda Dessau AM, Governor of Victoria, as a gift to the people of Victoria. Currently, the garden provides the foundation for a program of activities designed to provide connections and support aimed at building participant’s sense of welcome and belonging in the Victorian Community.
Our team came up with the slogan - Embrace The Old to Create New, that captures the essence of what the kitchen garden program aims to deliver for all who visit. The design elements that form this project will cater to a variety of functional purposes such as providing a statement point of entry, and providing seating and shade. The vision is that these elements - entrance arch, gates, central table, arbour and deck convey the title and theme of Peace & Prosperity subtly but respectfully.
1. Primary entrance – becoming a transition between the old and the new. 2. Shade structure, seating and table - accommodating the multi functional space for wide variety of users. 3. Secondary entrance – isolating the garden from the surroundings. 4. Utility Room – for the convenience for kitchenware and wheelchairs to move around the site. 5. Arbor and Deck – softening the edge. 6. Existing Shed – retaining the heritage building.
