FROM THE EDITOR It is with great delight that I write the Editor’s letter for the 20th edition of Outdoor Design Source. For 20 years ODS has been on the front lines of the external works industry, introducing readers to the innovative products and services of our clients and keeping everyone informed about what is happening in the world of landscaping and public space across Australia and around the globe. We are so proud to be a mainstay in a thriving industry that changes and grows every year. From our humble yet innovative beginnings 20 years ago, ODS has grown along with the industry, working hard to match the needs of our clients and our readers and represent the best the built environment has to offer. During our time, the face of ODS has moved from a purely print-based medium to a full print + digital network, forming an information service that better serves a contemporary audience. With a range of sector-targeted eNewsletters, a fully-responsive website, combined with our digital newsfeed and social media presence, all sitting on the platform of the annual print directory that started it all, ODS has never been in a better position to fully service the construction industry. Looking back through the past 20 years of ODS I have noticed the ebb and flow in development of public space. In 2018, I feel we’ve reached a zenith with regard to the quality and scope of public space. The preponderance of construction of open space projects alone is gratifying, but seeing the move toward a highly considered, ‘designed’ public realm that incorporates a variety of programs for public use is truly inspiring. No longer do we see a block of grass and a few trees or a paved square. Today’s public spaces are flexible and layered, with room for events, gathering and community celebration, and equipped with multiuse street furniture, public art and playscapes straight out of a child’s imagination. As the move toward urban living continues in Australia and in many cities around the world, and we experience greater instances of ‘vertical’ living, including our recreation spaces, the importance being placed on public space is growing. The fact that public greenspace is becoming the new ‘backyard’ for many urban dwellers is a significant trend that is no longer being overlooked. The role of the architect, designer, urban planner and landscape architect is taking on a new design-centric dimension and creating a greater understanding of the importance of the ‘user experience’. While this may not be a new concept to those in the profession, the growing recognition in the public sphere among laypeople is considerable, working to expand the external works sector and raise its profile to a wider audience, and proving the veracity of its contribution to our built environment. The global shift toward a greater understanding of what public space means to our cities and suburbs creates a greater demand in the market, with the public requiring more amenity and design professionals rising to the challenge to meet, and in many cases exceed, the expectations of the public in the creation of open space projects. The growth of Australia’s construction market is at an all-time high and the innovation and creativity being shown is truly something to be admired. A new era in public space has arrived! As our perceptions around public space flex and grow, the notion of ‘outdoor space’ or ‘nature’ is also undergoing a shift. With the changes taking place in our urban environment and the growing recognition of how important a connection to nature is, we are seeing some innovations in public space projects that not only change the way we live in urban environments but change the way we interact as a community — like building a playground inside a building in an urban environment that won’t support a direct existence in nature — bringing the outdoors inside or putting it on the roof to ensure a connection to nature and a greenspace for communal recreation. The notion that we can develop a landscaped world and meet our need to connect with nature without sacrificing the security and convenience of an urban lifestyle is testament to the creativity and non-linear thinking of design professionals today. The scope for imaginative alternatives that meet a changing environment proves their adaptability and gives us hope for a more balanced future in our cities. As always, thanks go to the whole ODS team, from our dedicated sales associates and publishers to our designers and coordinators, for everything they contribute to the creation of Australia’s premier external works resource network. With so many new and exciting innovations propelling the built environment to new heights, we hope you’ll journey with us as we embark on the next 20 years with Outdoor Design Source.

A GATEWAY TO PLAY Taking park design to a whole new level, the team at Fleming’s has produced a neighbourhood park that does more than just ‘tick the boxes’

T

here are parks, and then there are great parks! Developer Abiwood went all out to achieve a truly great park for their latest residential community, Clydevale Living in Clyde North, Victoria. Completed in May 2017, the 1.2Ha park in the Clydevale estate is undoubtedly the highlight of this exciting new community; a result of the dedicated team of landscape architects, garden designers and inhouse construction team from Fleming’s Landscapes, led by the hands-on direction of passionate horticulturalist Wes Fleming OAM.

Adopting an ‘inclusive’ approach to the creation of Clydevale Park, Wes worked in close counsel with the developer, Fleming’s design team and Casey Council to deliver a botanical oasis with ‘the lot’. After a comprehensive overview of community parks across Melbourne, Fleming noted a significant difference between parks that were seemingly unused and those that attracted crowds. He found that the most active parks in Melbourne did more than just tick the boxes on the ‘council-must-haves’ list. Pleasingly, the thing the most active parks had in common was an abundance of

greenlife that included large shade trees, lawns and garden beds. Successful parks also included proactive play equipment that transcended age ranges, catering to everyone from tots to teenagers, and facilities for adults, families and singles alike, allowing for multiplatform activity to occur in a natural and inclusive way. These findings helped the Fleming’s team develop a plan to ensure Clydevale offered a park for all people that was rich with greenery, which studies show improve health and wellbeing generally. From the moment of its completion,

"There are parks, and then there are great parks!" families and children from miles around have thronged to enjoy Clydevale Park’s interactive play equipment. The playground — for tots to teens — offers a huge sandpit with a hidden dinosaur, ball playing zones, swings, natural rock climbing walls, a look-out tower, waterplay area and more. The real hero of the park is the Hyde Park-inspired gardens with picnic grounds capped by a modern multipurpose amphitheatre. Fleming’s brought dimension and interest to the flat expanse of land with the addition of the amphitheatre and a look-out hill. The sweeping amphitheatre is an attractive space to sit and relax, as well as a place for an open-air cinema, or a makeshift stage for community events (already in the planning with council). Using his renowned ‘green thumb’ and skill for design, Wes Fleming made a bold statement with his choice of advanced London Plane trees (Platanus x acerifolia) pleached to ‘umbrella’ forms, which in time will grow to provide a unique natural shade canopy around the barbecue/ entertaining area. The entire perimeter of the park is bordered by advanced ornamental trees, the standout being a 50m-long archway of Parrotia persica. Indian Summer Crepe Myrtle (Lagerstroemia indica x faurie) will be a knock-out in summer with striking blooms pedestrians will love to meander through. And one of Fleming’s new tree species is also on show, Nyssa sylvatica ‘Forum’, which will shine in autumn with fire-bright leaf-turners. Street furniture throughout the park is solid and contemporary in design, built to

stand the test of time. Shade structures balance soft and hard materials, with creepers trained to grow over the wood and steel structures to soften the whole effect and deepen the shade provided. A true standout in the park is a striking feature sculpture designed by Wes Fleming. The form of the sculpture was purposely mirrored in accent furniture, such as the swing frame, throughout the park to provide continuity and complexity of design. Clydevale Park encourages active participation, with wide paths ideal for walking, jogging, and bike riding, and exercise equipment for adults, while passive play equipment such as wooden animals serve as climbing structures or seats for children. Developer Abiwood has been astounded with the level of detail and finish within the park and Fleming’s willingness to go above and beyond throughout the consultation process. Not only did Fleming’s nail the brief, they exceeded it in every way, delivering an outcome the entire community is already proud to call their own. Scope of works undertaken by Fleming’s includes: • Landscape architecture and garden design • Plant growing • Plant source and supply • Installation and ongoing maintenance • Feature sculpture design • Play equipment design • Hard landscape construction and installation • Drainage solutions • Advice and consultation

AN INCLUSIVE DESTINATION The Rosebud playspace is a community zone that supports inclusive engagement for all locals and visitors to the area

T

he all-abilities playground on the Mornington Peninsula’s Rosebud foreshore was constructed to cater to the growing community, and as part of Council’s Destination Rosebud campaign to attract more tourism to the area. The campaign was designed to encourage and elevate the level of use of the area and provide locals with a muchneeded playspace. The junior playspace at Rosebud focuses on sensory and imaginative play while senior areas provide a range of age specific challenges. There are large and small mounds for climbing, bank slides, swings, a flying fox, balance beams and a rope haul. An outdoor classroom, various shelters and garden beds also encourage social activities and adventure for all visitors. The Rosebud Foreshore playspace is inspired by the Mornington Peninsula’s unique geography and landscape. It

incorporates a nature-based theme with a natural pallet of materials. This innovative and fun foreshore playspace caters for a range of ages and abilities, and aims to inspire and excite with an array of accessible play options, including paths throughout the ground level, ramps to shelters, a basket swing, and tactile gardens to explore. Rising above the playground is a rocky mountain form that incorporates a selection of fun and challenging routes between the top and bottom. A metal slide snaking down to ground level provides a quick way down, while soft mounds offer challenging obstacles in the climb back to the top, together with steps, rope nets and rope lines. For smaller adventurers, a lower section features a smaller metal slide and a single flying fox with disk seat. In front of the mountain sits a ring of play equipment that includes a bird’s

nest swing, four standard swings, a big carousel to spin on — to test out the laws of centrifugal force — a tunnel, narrow metal slide, and lots of rocks and stepping stones made from logs and concrete for climbing and exploring.


www.outdoordesign.com.au

PRODUCT PROJECTS SHOWCASE GUIDE In addition to this comprehensive range of play equipment, two large shelters provide shade and cooking amenities. Each bright yellow architectural structure contains a combination of table setting, bench seating and Christie barbecues for park users. Working within the Council brief to specify inclusive amenities for wheelchair users, Christie supplied three barbecues to the Rosebud playspace, comprising a total of five individual barbecue cooktops, including their award-winning A Series barbecue. Manufactured from stainless steel,

27

making it ideal for marine foreshores, the A Series barbecue is a truly inclusive amenity that makes cooking in the park a communal activity. Additional custom barbecue units with blue stone surrounds, to complement the overall natural palette and materials used in the park, were also installed. The Rosebud foreshore playground caters to all members of the growing local community as well as visitors to the area, and with the installation of a Christie A Series all-access barbecue, is an inclusive space for community engagement.

”Christie’s A Series barbecue is a truly inclusive amenity that makes cooking in the park a communal activity.”

A SENSORY EXPERIENCE The first of its kind in Australia, Lions Park is a multi-sensory playspace inspired by the work of Leonardo da Vinci

G

ladstone in Queensland is now home to a unique play experience that is a first of its kind in Australia. A people-first design, Lions Park is an all-inclusive sensory playspace that meets the needs of all ages and abilities, influenced by a nature-meetsindustry aesthetic. Wanting to upgrade the existing facilities from the passive recreation space it had become into a highly engaging environment, in 2016 Gladstone Regional Council commissioned a Masterplan for Lions Park, seeking community involvement to ensure a range of facilities were provided to meet the needs of the region. With $3.5M in funds allocated to the project, the resulting facility exceeded all initial expectations for the space.

Focusing on the seven senses (hearing, sight, smell, taste, touch, vestibular and proprioception) Lions Park goes beyond accessibility, designed to cater to children and adults with sensory processing disorders, auditory processing disorders, visual impairment, Down syndrome, autism, cerebral palsy, muscular dystrophy and spina bifida. JW Concepts worked as the landscape architect, in close collaboration with Struxi Design, Playscape Creations and Gladstone Regional Council, to design and oversee construction of the project. The brief called for the existing playspace to be dismantled and refurbished with a higher level of embellishment that would explore the interplay of industry and nature, and represent the industrial


www.outdoordesign.com.au

elements of Gladstone’s regional centre as a port town through play. According to Playscape Creations, suppliers of the park’s play equipment, the park’s layout is based on the interaction of cogs, with interlocking zones of activity that accommodate a wide range of allaccess activities, including swing and spin opportunities, action zones, water play spaces and nature play adventures that promote a connection to the natural elements onsite. A particular favourite in the park is the Five-way Swing Zone, which allows up to five people to swing together, encouraging interactive play and a shared experience. Concrete walls that reflect the industrial nature of Gladstone act as space dividers for the different play areas. The park also provides a connection to the natural edge of Police Creek and establishes a connection between the commercial/ retail zone and the park. A series of formal and informal paths create a narrative through the park, linking the active, passive and natural sectors of the space. In addition, furnished seating areas were established in order to encourage passive enjoyment of the park. Established trees and plants such as Nardoo waterlilies, sedge grass, paperbark trees and eucalypt stands encourage local wildlife from the nearby creek to stick around. The existing natural environment informed elements of the park’s design, promoting visual and sensory experiences by utilising natural forms for the sculptural and functional play structures. While existing trees needed to be removed to accommodate the new facility, additional plantings were added that will provide ample shade in time. In the meantime, soaring shade towers, reminiscent of Leonardo da Vinci’s Gyrocopter design, protect park users from the elements. An outstanding effort on the part of all involved, Lions Park is a new benchmark for public playspaces that offers the hope of inclusion to all sectors of the community.

THE AURA OF SUCCESS A large-scale residential development raises the bar for integrated playspaces with the custom statement Aura Treehouse project


www.outdoordesign.com.au

PRODUCT PROJECTS SHOWCASE GUIDE

“Imagined as a ‘forbidden forest’, Aura Treehouse is a vivid splash of colour on the landscape.”

A

ura Estate on the Sunshine Coast is the largest single-owned masterplanned community ever undertaken in Australia, and the nation’s largest wetland rehabilitation and stormwater treatment project. With over 20,000 new homes on the slate, Aura Estate is on track to become the country’s largest 6-star Green Community. Conceived by Stockland Developments, Aura Estate has over 700 hectares designated for rehabilitation and conservation, but they haven’t forgotten their littlest residents either. Located within the estate, Aura Treehouse is a custom statement playground delivered by Urban Play and furnished with quality play equipment from global playground manufacturer KOMPAN. Imagined as a ‘forbidden forest’ where children can climb, hide, explore and imagine, Aura Treehouse is a vivid splash of colour on the landscape. A destination playspace that underscores the lifestyle brand of the estate, the play structures were realised by KOMPAN Design Studio (KDS) in collaboration with Urban Play. KDS is a special unit that focuses on creating totally new, innovative play structures and solutions that are tailor made to meet specific project requirements. The KDS unit is comprised of engineers, designers and landscape architects to create bespoke play structures that are structurally sound and provide high play value. The central component of the Aura playspace is a large scale central tree tower that stands 11.5m off the ground with a custom-designed cabin nestled among the branches — the largest tower and cabin combination KDS have designed to date. Realised as a four dimensional climbing tower, the treehouse offers 360 degree views.

A curvy stainless-steel slide extends from the main ‘tree’ to carry climbers back down to ground level. A rope bridge connects the largest tower to a second treehouse where an additional slide gives kids another means to reach the ground. And if that isn’t enough, a Corocord rope net offers yet another climbing opportunity. Adorned with brightly hued leaves, the treehouse offers multiple points of entry and access to the varied climbing routes. The elevated perch of the cabins gives children a bird's-eye view of the area and encourages a connection with nature from its leafy canopy, equating to immense play value for little explorers and keeping them active and challenged for hours on end. Geared to children of all ages and abilities, the Aura Treehouse offers a wide variety of activities. The use of texture played a major part in the project’s development, with the equipment a combination of galvanised steel, Corocord rope, Robinia organic wood and rubber membranes.

In addition to all the climbing challenges, a Birds Nest swing was also installed. This unit allows children of all abilities and ages to swing alone or in a group. A considered strategy on behalf of Stockland, the integration of top-quality playgrounds into their sales centres is a persuasive point of difference that entices young families to new estate projects. The Aura Treehouse, Queensland’s first four-dimensional custom-designed treehouse, is already proving to be a successful endeavour in building the Aura community.

A series of decorative road murals serve as a unique Welcome Mat to the City of Unley in South Australia

A

s part of their goal to create a vibrant city that reflects the culture, diversity and lifestyle of its community, the City of Unley, South Australia, sought a team of creatives to develop a series of artistic road murals known as the Welcome Mat project. The significant public art works were created utilising a decorative asphalt surfacing system designed specifically for high traffic areas and established an art trail that reflects the spirit of Unley. The colourful murals start on the centre section of one of the City’s main roads (Goodwood Road) and branch out into a series of side streets (Florence, Rosa, Lily, Gilbert, Victoria and Surrey Streets). Resplendent with an array of motifs and designs, the murals feature books, trees and ferns, birds, clouds, musical notes, bookcases with well-

known titles, as well as plates, forks, cups and stars in a vibrant display of colour. A major community undertaking, the project was a collaborative endeavour between MPS Paving Systems Australia, Creative Pavements, Artist Ellen Schlobohm and the City of Unley. Reminiscent of the artistic practice of papercutting, the artistic vision for the works involved strong imagery developed using positive and negative space. “The designs I created for the project capture this, with each street touching on a different aspect of Goodwood Road and celebrating the community that surrounds it,” says Ellen. While the tree on Rosa Street is “reflective of the growth of Goodwood as well as its longevity”, Lily Street “celebrates the rich culinary experiences Goodwood has to offer”, according to the artist. These bold designs were achieved utilising the DuraTherm™ asphalt surfacing system from MPS Paving Systems Australia. A decorative surfacing product, DuraTherm™ is a thermoplastic material installed flush into imprinted asphalt that is specifically designed for hightraffic areas such as crosswalks and intersections. It is quick to install and will maintain its vibrancy for many years, making the Welcome Mat project a viable long term community initiative for the City of Unley. Installed by Creative Pavements, the transformation of the local area brought colour and life into the region around Goodwood Road. The public spaces, sidewalk cafes, local facilities and entertainment venues were tied together with each new mural that was completed, reclaiming space for pedestrians and unifying the area through relevant themes.

LET THERE BE LED

An eco-friendly lighting project in Bundaberg is doing its bit to support turtle breeding in this well-known Australian destination

A

coastal town in the Bundaberg region, Bargara is less than 10 minutes from Mon Repos, Bundaberg’s premier turtle sanctuary. Boasting some of Australia’s most stunning coastline, Bargara helps to support a thriving tourism economy. A favourite holiday destination, the Bundaberg area is known for offering spectacular diving and snorkelling, and views of the annual humpback whale migration. In addition, this beautiful region is home to mass turtle hatchings every

year. This incredible wildlife experience is attended by thousands of tourists and residents annually. In response to community requests for improved public space lighting along the town’s coastal pathway, Bundaberg City Council, aware of its environmental responsibilities, commissioned Orion Solar to install solar-powered LED lighting along the esplanade between Nielson Park and Clarke Street. What makes this lighting project so special is the lights are turtle-friendly!

In accordance with the project brief, 15 lights were installed along the route, with provisions for additional lighting to be added at a later date should it prove necessary. Replete with variable intensity adjustment capabilities, the IPL Integrated Architectural Area Lights supplied by Orion Solar run from dusk till dawn at variable luminosity to reduce impact on the surrounding environment. “[The lights] run at 100 percent intensity for the first few hours after

“Council is striving to meet the balance required between community safety and ensuring a care factor for the turtles that are iconic to our region.” dusk and again just before daylight, but operate at 30 percent intensity for the remainder of the night,” states Council Roads and Drainage portfolio spokesman Cr Wayne Honor. “Council has a strong focus within its lighting programs to incorporate environmentally sustainable technology and in this instance the lighting is turtlefriendly, solar-powered LED lighting.” A popular route between the Bargara caravan park and town centre, the esplanade is used for recreation activities like walking and cycling and also provides access to the beach, where turtle hatching can be viewed. “Council is striving to meet the balance required between community safety and ensuring a care factor for the turtles that are iconic to our region,” claims Divisional representative Cr Greg Barnes. Prior to installation, the subject of low-glow turtle-friendly lighting was explored at community meetings, with expert advice sought from international turtle expert Dr Blair Witherington, to ensure the project would meet the needs of the whole community. Key features of the lighting units installed include 100 percent sustainability, solar power, and amber in hue — one of the things that makes them turtle-friendly. In addition, the lights include variable intensity dimming and only project onto the ground where illumination is required. This assists in cutting down on ambient glow to the surrounding area. A cost-saving feature for Council, the lighting units have a low installation cost as no trenching for cables is required. There are almost no ongoing running costs, and, being solar, they are not affected by power outages. Attractive and slender in design, the lighting units complement the surrounding landscape rather than overpowering it. The solar panel, electronics, batteries and luminaire are all contained within the light head, making for a compact and attractive self-contained unit. Meeting all the requirements specified by Council, the Bargara pathway sustainable, turtle-friendly lighting project has proven a great success with all members of the Bundaberg community.

THE POWER OF PLACEMAKING

A historic civic square in Poland gets activated by an innovative collection of flexible designer street furniture

P

roving the persuasive power of street furniture in public space activation, an underutilised courtyard in Poznań, Poland was given purpose and function through the integration of a series of moveable “living lounges”. Having undergone many incarnations throughout its long history, from a community gathering space to an uninspired parking lot, the latest incarnation has brought this courtyard back to community gathering space, with even greater functionality. A series of landscaped benches has transformed the area into a garden oasis, street cafe, community public square and formal performance space. A growing trend in the creation of public spaces worldwide is the notion of multi-use functionality. Given the diverse cultural and social needs of many an urban population, public spaces are now required to provide a range of amenities and programs to meet

a plethora of community requirements. Street furniture is one way in which to achieve effective placemaking. Placemaking is the “multi-faceted approach to the creation and management of public spaces that capitalises on community assets to intentionally develop spaces to promote social interaction and individual wellbeing”. Good placemaking encourages social interaction on a community level. The Poznań project achieves this through the integration of flexible and multifunctional street furniture, activating the space with an intimacy and cosiness contrary to its urban interior. Designed and implemented by Atelier Starzak Strebicki, a Poland-based architecture and design firm, the public realm furniture injects greenspace elements into a moveable framework to create “living lounges” that can be rearranged to create formal or informal gathering spaces, or into an

Originally containing no elements that encouraged the public to gather and engage, the Old Town square was populated with Starzak Strebicki’s flowerbed seating, originally as a big round bench around a central flower bed. The additions resulted in increased use by those encountering the space. No longer was the square just a place to pass through but rather it had become a place to linger and relax. With places to sit, a green outlook and a series of activities in which to partake, traffic to the area has greatly increased and the space is now a genuine community asset. Atelier Starzak Strebicki’s installation effectively demonstrates the growing desire of cities to incorporate more greenspaces into urban centres, without the sometimes problematic need for large-scale infrastructure works.

A GRANDE REVIVAL

A rehabilitation project in Springfield Lakes has overhauled an under-maintained drainage corridor to restore effective water runoff and protect the lake system

S

pringfield Lakes is Australia’s largest masterplanned community. Situated in the City of Ipswich, Queensland, the residential development is home to over 15,000 people. Specifically located to reduce growth along the Brisbane-Gold Coast Corridor, Springfield Lakes is a series of ‘villages’ that form community neighbourhoods. In late 2017, Evolve Environmental Solutions was commissioned to work alongside Shadforths Civil Contractors to rehabilitate and repair the Grande Avenue drainage corridor abutting the Springfield Lakes development. An existing gully within the topography of the region, the corridor was part of the natural landscape prior to construction, with the development

built on the surrounding ridge lines. Due to limited waterway management the Grande Avenue corridor, a major water conveyance mechanism, had become heavily infested with common weed species and rubbish, impacting the effective operation of the system. The water carried by the Grande Avenue gully makes its way into the broader lake system that sits at the centre of the development. As a conveyance mechanism it plays a part in cleaning, slowing and generally managing water across the entire system. Without rehabilitation, water runoff would have had to find its way into the creek systems in other ways, meaning untreated water would have entered the broader Springfield Lakes scheme.

Owing to the need to ensure the efficient operation of water management systems across the site, Evolve Environmental Solutions undertook weed management followed by bank stabilisation using matting and mulching processes, stabilised by extensive tree planting. Initial works required extensive weed removal, maintained with regular follow up treatments to ensure long term success within the area. Difficulties encountered on the project arose from tough terrain and the steepness of the batters, requiring the Evolve team to utilise their skill working with ropes to combat the height issues. After successful weed treatment, the Evolve team worked to stabilise the receding earthworks, ensuring long term

viability by installing coir mesh to the exposed batters. Being part of an active creek system, these types of works can be impacted by encroaching weather events. Advanced planning for the Springfield project took the possibility of climate fluctuations into consideration, managing expectations to ensure the client was aware of all possible outcomes. The knowledge and experience of the Evolve Environmental team minimised potential risks throughout the entire project, enabling successful planting into the steep batters at the right time, with a high plant establishment and survival rate. The use of coir matting on this project assisted with plant establishment, contributing to a longer than average life expectancy and overall success as an environmental solution for the project. A contract with Evolve Environmental Solutions for ongoing maintenance of the Grande Avenue drainage corridor project will ensure continued efficient operation of this essential waterway.

A GROWTH OPPORTUNITY Fully embracing the value of landscape design, the Lomandra estate developers pursued a bold plan that netted winning results

C

onvincing developers to spend more money than usual on residential landscaping is usually a tough ask — and the answer is most often “No”. Urban Land Development (ULD) however embraced the notion of going first class in the development of the Lomandra estate, and never looked back. Engaging Fleming’s Landscapes to deliver something above the standard for their Romsey development was a top priority for ULD; and the final result speaks for itself. A result UDIA Victoria obviously agreed with, as they awarded Lomandra the Best Residential Estate Under 250 Lots in 2017. While regional development in locations such as Romsey often suffer from reduced budgets compared to their metropolitan counterparts, Lomandra benefited from a bolstered landscape budget, which has made all the difference.

UDIA attributed the pivotal success of Lomandra to the high level of landscaping and the recreational facilities offered within the development, which include: mod-grass tennis court, AFL, soccer and basketball goals, and an extensive playspace. Working closely with the developer, Fleming’s saw the potential of Lomandra from the outset and developed a plan that would increase the appeal of the estate early on in construction. Very mature 150L street trees — double the usual size — were planted throughout the street network, offering instant appeal but also giving the streetscape an advancement that will stand the test of time. As part of the plan to ensure every possible avenue in the estate included a tree, ULD agreed to let Fleming’s plant as many trees as possible within council guidelines. As a result, the canopy cover in Lomandra will be double that of many

of its counterparts, producing a visually green, highly attractive community that will add to potential resale values and the overall value of the community. Such landscaping measures not only increased day-to-day sales and garnered awards in the present, according to Fleming’s Director Wes Fleming, they will also serve as the legacy for future generations. “While some may argue the increased focus on greenlife and landscape features is for the benefit of the developer, with increased sales values per lot, we argue that ultimately we are delivering better value on the landscape, which will only appreciate as it matures. “Buildings and other hard materials are often at their best the day they are completed, but by increasing the budget for soft landscaping features like mature street plantings and the like, they will


www.outdoordesign.com.au

get better as they grow and mature. The result will be better street appeal, properties are more likely to be tightly held and appreciate better in value with age,” claims Wes. Under Fleming’s guidance, the estate developers were also willing to accept seeding grassed areas that were of high visual impact within the development — after Fleming’s trialled various avenues to discover the best option for grassing the area. The trials indicated that spending more on site preparation and seeding, including adding Hydrocell, as opposed to rolling out turf, was the best outcome and provided the least impact on water usage. The other focus of the landscape was to ensure a diverse selection of facilities that catered to a wide cross-section of ages. Large open space areas offer zones for multi-purpose and all-age play in addition to active and passive uses. When asked about the project, ULD claim it was the “one percenter” additions that made all the difference to Lomandra, elevating it from an ordinary development to an extraordinary one. Items like the shared pathway surrounding the playground, which include counting features such as circles and sleeper combinations that provide a fun and relational way of learning, are one example of how this estate rises above. Another is the granite rock retaining walls. Not only do they stand in nicely as Aussie Rules goals, they also form an informal seating area that maximises the useable space — just some of the special Fleming’s touches that help make Lomandra stand out from the crowd. Scope of works undertaken by Fleming’s includes: • Complete landscape construction and installation • Streetscape landscaping • Parks landscaping • Plant source and supply • Installation • Ongoing maintenance • Drainage solutions • Advice and consultation CONTACT Fleming’s Group of Companies P 03 9756 6105 E mail@flemings.com.au W www.flemings.com.au PROJECT PARTICULARS Project Lomandra Estate Location Romsey, Victoria Client Urban Land Developments Landscape Architect Fleming’s Landscapes Plant Source & Supply Fleming’s Nurseries Installation & Maintenance Fleming’s Landscapes Construction Fleming’s Landscapes

“The new neighbourhood is inspired by the local environment, creating a 'village within a village' scenario.”

A

n inner region of Melbourne, south east of the city centre, Armadale is a thriving suburb with a growing population. It is in this location that Lendlease has erected a new luxury residential precinct known as Toorak Park. Adjacent to the railway station, Toorak Park boasts the construction of 448 apartments and 18 townhouses, divided across four leafy quarters. With residences ranging in size from 49m2 to 145m2 with 1-3 bedroom apartments, Toorak Park offers young families and professionals “superbly crafted living” with close proximity to the city, local amenities, and public transport, all with a relaxed suburban lifestyle. Situated alongside the suburb of Toorak — long regarded as Melbourne’s most affluent suburb — Armadale is considered one of the area’s most desirable suburbs. A modern style “underpinned by an appreciation for quality and longevity”, Toorak Park is the result of a collaboration between Lendlease, architects Denton Corker Marshal, interior designers Carr Design Group, and landscape designers Tract. The new neighbourhood is inspired by the local environment, creating a “village within a village” scenario. One third of the site space has been dedicated to open space, with lushly landscaped communal gardens and a tree-lined boulevard providing direct access to Toorak railway. A signature style of elegance, refinement and practicality has been carried throughout the entire development, inside and out. The extensively landscaped site, envisioned by Mike Stokes, director of landscape architecture at Tract, has delivered a seamless design that includes a series of sculpted balconies, terraces

and common walkways using pavers supported by Buzon Screwjack Pedestals from Pasco Construction Solutions. Invaluable in the construction of raised floors, Buzon pedestals proved to be the perfect solution for creating level courtyards, terraces and other hardscaped floors throughout the Toorak Park project. De Fazio Tiling Projects were engaged to install approximately 10,000m2 of 600mm x 600mm granite and bluestone pavers on Buzon pedestals, ranging from 50mm to 150mm in height. Buzon pedestals support external surfaces to allow a seamless flow between indoor and outdoor horizontal surfaces. They prevent water ponding and comply with requirements for the finished ground level to step down and fall away from the building. A fully adjustable and patented solution for sloping substrates, Buzon pedestals create a flat stable surface between heights of 17mm to 1070mm to conceal mechanical, electrical and plumbing services, while providing easy access for maintenance of waterproof membranes. Buzon pedestals reduce the weight bearing loads on concrete slabs, by eliminating screeding, sand/cement beds for pavers and tiles, and improve structure-borne impact noise resistance in multi-storey buildings. Buzon pedestals also have solid sustainability credentials. They are manufactured from 80 percent recycled polypropylene and are 100 percent recyclable. Designed, manufactured and tested in Belgium, Buzon pedestals have been used on projects all over the world for over 30 years and now includes Toorak Park among its many successes.

INSPIRED LOCAL LIVING Harcrest Central Park utilises a commuity approach to ensure sustainable living for this masterplanned development

H

arcrest Estate, a masterplanned community located in Wantirna South in Melbourne’s east, is a contemporary development where “amenity, parks and landscaping have been carefully planned to maximise lifestyle”. With the goal of sustainability a top priority for this development, Harcrest aims to set a benchmark for sustainable living. A large part of that plan was the development of recreation space Harcrest Central Park. Constructed by PTA Landscapes, the previously undeveloped section of land was crafted into a 26,000m2 functional park to be enjoyed by local residents and members of the wider community. This large public space is located just off the main entrance boulevard and features a manmade lake at its centre. Containing play and recreation zones, structural pavilions, platforms, boardwalk, and surrounding greenscape, Harcrest Central Park is a strong feature of this growing community.

“With a plethora of consciously crafted and expertly executed amenities, Harcrest Central Park is the crown jewel at the centre of this sustainable living development.” Being such a key component of the estate, the recreation space needed to incorporate a variety of functions and amenities. A range of hard surfaces, from timber to brick to concrete, were employed across the area to accommodate a variety of activities. The use of brick to create pathways leading to the main pavilion was a deliberate choice, becoming the connecting material featured in other parts of the estate that creates harmony across the development. Exposed concrete was utilised for the entertaining and barbecue area and a mixture of granitic gravel and rubber create a softfall zone beneath the fitness equipment. Drainage was installed in the playground, surrounding lawns and garden beds, with additional landscaping designed to direct runoff to the wetlands

and lake. Garden beds surrounding the wetlands, structures, and play and entertaining areas were densely planted to create an established, soft and natural environment. And shrubs and established trees were installed throughout the gardens and lawns to give the development an established feel. Around 9000m2 of turf was also installed as part of the landscaping plan. These areas were shaped to create contours that provide space for play, mounds for sitting, and large gentle slopes for picnics and relaxing. All areas are irrigated utilising water supplied by the central lake and underground storage. Five large structures form architectural features within the park. The boardwalk provides an east-west link over the southern wetland and the shelters have


www.outdoordesign.com.au

key seating areas that provide viewing points across the lake. Each structure also provides an opportunity to function as a meeting point for local residents. To ensure longevity, the shelters are constructed with structural steel frames and clad with hardwood decking timber, while corten steel encases the exterior of the north and south sides of the pavilions. The boardwalk is suspended over the wetland on multiple concrete pillars and utilises the same hardwood for the decking, kick rails and handrails. A playground and fitness area was also installed, to allow families, couples and groups to make the most of the park area. The area offers a range of fitness and play equipment designed for users of all ages and abilities. Play structures have been built on a raised play hill, with mulch and rolling rubber surfaced areas installed for safety. Feature rockwork appears in the gardens and creates steps up to the raised sandpit, adding a natural element that softens the hard materials of the modern equipment. The basketball court also offers an insitu skate element, creating a dual purpose for the space. Finishing off Harcrest Central Park is a variety of street furniture and lighting elements. Brick bench seats spread throughout the park are fixed with custom composite timber seats that will stand the test of time. Picnic settings are installed in entertaining spaces conveniently located near the barbecues. Custom hardwood timber picnic settings and architectural furniture elements are installed on both viewing platforms. Water drinking fountains with fixed dog bowls are placed along pathways to accommodate those walking their pets through the park. Rounding out the amenities, street and path lighting was installed along the main brick pavement to ensure safety for those traversing the area at night. In addition,

lighting can be found between the boardwalk and western viewing platform, while LED lights illuminate the area under the western platform. This abundance of lighting keeps the main spaces well lit and usable during the twilight hours. With a plethora of consciously crafted and expertly executed amenities, Harcrest Central Park is the crown jewel at the centre of this sustainable living development.

WATERFRONT WONDER A project 15 years in the making, the Chicago Riverwalk is an exultant example of placemaking at its most dynamic

C

onnecting the city centre with the waterfront, Chicago Riverwalk is a multi-use public space that extends along lower Wacker Drive edging the river flowing through the vibrant city of Chicago, USA. The new mix of concessions and public activities has transformed the former industrial zone, creating a dynamic and highly functional space that now forms a 2.4km promenade promoting community engagement. “The swampy Chicago River gave birth to arguably the greatest city of the 20th century,” says architect and design leader Carol Ross Barney. “In Chicago’s formative years, the river was its lifeline, brimming with traffic. [Daniel Hudson] Burnham built his 1909 plan on a civic waterway and promenade along the river. We were entrusted with the responsibility to finally complete that vision and transform what had become a postindustrial leftover into a 21st century urban waterfront.” Developed by Ross Barney Architects in collaboration with planning and design

firm Sasaki, the large-scale public space project was completed in three phases, beginning with the development of the area from Michigan Avenue to Lake Street, which included the Vietnam Veterans Memorial, Wabash Plaza and the Bridgehouse Museum Plaza. Meeting at river level, these structures coalesced into Stages 2 and 3, which comprised a range of programs stretching from State Street to Lake Street and formed the full scope of the masterplan, generating a series of “distinct civic spaces” within the river region that provide unique user experiences. In addition to the marina and river theatre developed in Stage 2, the final programs created included a water plaza with sundeck and children’s fountain, a jetty, and an interactive learning environment that encourages education about the ecology of the river through a series of piers, floating wetland gardens and ‘fishing holes’. An integral link from the streets above down to the river is provided via a block-wide set of stairs together

TRANSPORTING SOLAR SOLUTIONS

A custom-designed solar shelter system has transported the amenities of La Trobe University to new environmentally friendly heights

C

ommitted to improving access to La Trobe University and the arrival experience of students, staff and visitors to the Bundoora campus, Melbourne University instigated a transport infrastructure upgrade that would increase access to the campus and improve the user experience. Jointly funded by the University and Victorian State Government, the upgraded bus stop would allow for the addition of a high-frequency bus shuttle service that improved access to the campus. In addition, improved seating, weatherproofing, and enhanced wayfinding and campus information was achieved with the new shelter system from Stoddart Infrastructure.

Part of a four-stage masterplan for the campus, the upgraded shelter along Science Drive was designed to help reactivate external and internal spaces from the campus to the Agora retail precinct. A greatly improved ‘first impression’ is also afforded to students and staff utilising public transport, and greater accessibility for persons with disabilities. Key features of the campus-wide upgrade included amenities with environmentally sustainable design initiatives, green walls, rainwater harvesting, low energy consumption lighting, as well as water usage and general waste initiatives to align with University sustainability targets.

In keeping with the University’s brief, Stoddart Infrastructure designed, manufactured and installed a series of ‘smart’ shelters, remaking the Science Drive bus terminus and creating a safer and more environmentally friendly shelter system. Architectural in design and innovative in application, the new university shelters are based on the Wellington Shelter design by Stoddart, with custom modifications to meet campus requirements. Constructed from aluminium and finished in a bright white powdercoat, the long-span shelters provide ample protection from the elements and feature rear glass, advertising panels, and suitable seating for patron comfort.

www.outdoordesign.com.au

“Innovation is about the ability to recognise that nothing is impossible or cannot be improved upon.� Set in a staggered line, the new shelters are sleek and modern, with a solid but slimline construction that melds well with the surrounding infrastructure. A flat panel roofline allows for the integration of a complex photovoltaic roof system. The solar roof glass panels are a subtle indication that the structures contribute to powering their own lighting, as well as that of the surrounding buildings. A fully concealed hardware network enables remote control and monitoring of the system, with data from the system displayed via an app that wirelessly connects to the micro-inverters located on each panel, allowing the University to monitor energy production. Stoddart worked in conjunction with Environmental Technology solutions (ETS) to install the Crystalline BIPV system solar panels from Onyx Solar. 1700mm x 1700mm in size, the industry compliant Onyx crystalline panels are made of laminated glass and generate 28kW of free electricity to the network. The solar system also provides the University the option to use battery storage in the future.

As a leading end-to-end provider of premium outdoor infrastructure solutions across Australia and New Zealand, Stoddart is an experienced supplier for large projects where flexibility, experience, and a commitment to quality are crucial to delivering successful infrastructure projects. Working to a specific brief, Stoddart was able to provide an innovative infrastructure solution for La Trobe with considered functionality and reliable durability that met the new campus ethos.

SURROUNDED BY FUN Combining coastal with a native bush vibe, this well-planned playspace offers a little something for everyone

T

he Surrounds is a new residential community located in Helensvale at the northern end of the Gold Coast in Queensland. This well thoughtout masterplan is a family-orientated neighbourhood that ensures a sense of community. Bordered by a natural tree and bush line with coastal access, The Surrounds possesses both a coastal and a natural environment that provides the best of both worlds for residents. Developed by Villawood Properties, quality lifestyle is a key element in the creation of this planned community. Recreation spaces and community activities abound to provide residents with all the amenities needed to live an active life. Cleverly thought-out playgrounds, parks, off-leash dog parks, walking tracks, and exercise areas promise amenities to meet all needs. To meet the Villawood Properties’ philosophy of “creating places that make people feel connected, which promote

healthy living and offer the most enviable of lifestyles”, The Surrounds features a children’s playground by WillPlay with a distinct adventuring theme. Designed to accommodate children of all ages and abilities, the new playground at The Surrounds includes timber climbing and balancing elements, for that ‘nature play’ feel, as well as a softfall rubber path with unique navigation elements and an overall ‘adventure’ approach. Known for their Australian-made play equipment, WillPlay installed a diverse range of their play structures in the playground to ensure there was something for everyone. With accessibility in mind, a two bay swing frame includes a basket swing that allows users of all abilities to participate. A custom Boxie climber with two slides challenges children to scale its heights before taking the Australian made roto-moulded slides back down to the ground. Boxie Rocks, Spinning Orbs, inground trampolines

and a water and sand play unit were also included in the engaging playscape. Extensive use of aluminium structural posts coupled with Australian-sourced recycled HDPE panels and stainless steel structural components ensures The Surrounds playground is durable and safe, and designed to withstand the harsh Australian climate for years to come. With inhouse design and manufacturing capabilities, WillPlay was able to meet the custom design options required by the development with ease. Because WillPlay keep safety at the forefront of any park design, engineered safety flooring was installed to protect all park users. A combination of Takura softfall and PlayKote coloured SBR softfall was utilised for maximum impact. Takura is an engineered pine softfall manufactured in Australia. It is dust free and one of the cleanest organic softfalls on the market. PlayKote coloured SBR softfall is a recycled, non-toxic and

COASTAL COOL

Revitalised to deliver greater community engagement, Christsen Park is now a family friendly play zone by the sea

L

ocated in one of Australia’s most beautiful coastal locales, Christsen Park in Bargara, North Queensland, underwent a major upgrade to ensure the local community and visitors to the area had a suitable and safe recreational venue in which to relax. Bundaberg Regional Council worked closely with a team of facilitators to greatly improve the park’s functionality and create an environment that would encourage families to gather together and enjoy the best that the local environment has to offer.

With tourists pulled to the area to enjoy snorkelling, whale watching and turtle hatching, Council wanted to create a modern facility that would encourage more visitors and still provide locals with a viable playspace. In consultation with Unisite Group, Council decided upon a suite of products that would complement the area and not interrupt the stunning views of Kelly’s Beach. The newly created space was constructed to open up the area to accommodate a greater range of passive recreational uses. In addition, the

“The newly created space was constructed to open up the area to accommodate a greater range of passive recreational uses.” reconfiguration of space created a safer environment by eliminating an access road that previously divided the amenities. Key features included in the park upgrade were a new playground with play structures suited to multiple age groups, together with new footpaths and four new shade structures with picnic settings and double-plate barbecues from Unisite. The park was also outfitted with a range of park furniture, including bins, seats, table settings, platforms, barbecues and drinking fountains. When selecting products for the project, Council specified the outdoor furniture and barbecues be user-friendly, continuously function without fault, and help reduce the costly maintenance program associated with the older existing equipment. Pieces from the Unisite Citistyle, Atessa and Reviva ranges met all of the Council’s requirements. The state-of-the-art Grillex Smarter barbecues, with simple to use controls and higher cooking performance, exceeded expectations and guarantee an excellent cooking experience for users. A new carpark and six-cubicle toilet block provide full amenity for park users, while a new access road ensures easy access. The single point of entry and exit now renders the entire seaward side of the park safe for use. To finish the space, landscaped gardens and turf was installed, softening the new hardscaping and settling the park into the surrounding environment. Since its opening, Bundaberg Council has reported great feedback from the public on the new facilities at Christsen Park. “The overall design is great. It’s open space and more family friendly,” claims Cr Barnes.

A POTTED PARADISE Over 300 custom-designed pots are one of the final design elements implemented on a major redevelopment of the third largest shopping centre in Australia

I

n undertaking a major redevelopment of the Chermside Westfield in Queensland, part of a $355 million expansion program that saw approximately 100,000 square metres of retail trading space added to the centre, Scentre Group commissioned Martin Kellock Pots & Planters to design and supply an array of large-scale pots with specified paint finishes to embellish the internal landscaping. A major suburb of the City of Brisbane, Chermside is situated just 9km north of the city and is one of the fastest developing suburbs. Known as the mini

CBD of Brisbane, Chermside is a busy metropolis with a thriving retail sector. Currently the third largest shopping centre in Australia, Scentre Group estimates that once completed Westfield Chermside will be one of five Australian shopping centres that have the capacity to garner more than $1 billion in retail sales annually. As part of stage six of the multi-stage redevelopment plans for Westfield Chermside — the largest centre in the Scentre Group portfolio — a series of composite and ceramic pots was specified for the interior fitout. The

design called for a variety of shapes and finishes that reflect the natural beauty of the surrounding environment. The addition of these decorative elements not only enhanced the internal vision of the centre but also served to enhance the shopping experience for the centre’s thousands of visitors. To fulfil the project brief, Martin Kellock Pots & Planters supplied over 300 pots and jars to the centre. Each piece was sealed internally and finished externally with a series of custom finishes exclusive to the project, in accordance with the preferred design visual. Finishes included

a ragged lime-wash paint effect and rust paint effect, designed in consultation with Scentre Group. The overall aesthetic was in keeping with the Scentre Group’s preference for earthy tones and natural finishes — a similar visual experienced throughout a number of the other Westfield centres. As Martin Kellock Pots & Planters is based in Melbourne, due to the large scope of the project, the pots were shipped straight from the various factories to the premises of the company’s logistic provider, where all finishes were applied before delivery to Chermside. Once the pots were installed onsite, the client decided they desired a different finish for some of the pots. The team from MKPP were able to travel back to Queensland and refinish the selection of pots onsite with an

alternative finish developed specifically for the Chermside project. The completed project is now a spectacular collection of large-scale pots scattered throughout the many levels of the centre, each with a bloom of greenery that helps to bring the tropics from outside into the cool comfort of the centre’s impressive interior.

DESTINATION FOR PLAY Home of the 2017 Super Bowl, Houston’s Village Green was transformed into a vibrant public space with the completion of a spectacular catenary lighting installation

D

iscovery Green is a 12-acre park in the heart of downtown Houston, Texas that opened to the public in April 2008. The park was transformed from an undeveloped, concrete eyesore into a beautiful and vibrant destination adjacent to the George R Brown Convention Centre, redefining the Houston downtown and instilling new civic pride in the city. Originally a high-end residential inner-city neighbourhood, by the late 20th Century the Discovery Green site had been reduced to housing two large parking lots for the convention centre. Driven by a clear mission to provide an uncommonly beautiful urban greenspace in the heart of Houston that would serve as a village green for the city, a

source of health and happiness for its citizens and a window into the incredible diversity of talents and traditions that enrich cultural life in Houston, the city acquired the land in 2002 with the support of a number of philanthropic partners and began its transformation. As a final element of the development, and in preparation for the 2017 Super Bowl, the City of Houston created a pedestrian area that would become “Super Bowl El Centro”, a focal point for the city’s Super Bowl related play activities that was crowned by a significant catenary lighting installation from Ronstan. In reshaping Discovery Green, Avenida de las Americas, at the East end of the Green, was reduced from eight traffic

Landscape designers, SWA Group, outfitted the space with a Ronstan Linear Grid catenary lighting feature to light and define the outdoor entertainment space. The lighting structure allowed the designers to play with the mood and create a unique and welcoming atmosphere beneath a transparent ceiling. The final result is a safe and inviting public space that encourages visitors to congregate and enjoy community activities. Ronstan’s role in the project included the design and analysis of the cable net, manufacture and supply of all cable net components and supervision of the installation. Ronstan managed the design process for the lighting system from Melbourne, Australia, adhering to an approach that has seen the company successfully complete catenary lighting structures on three continents. Ronstan understands how cables behave, how they will stretch and perform in a wide variety of conditions and specific load cases, which are ascertained for each project through a process of modelling and analysis. In essence, Ronstan “applies the science up-front” and arrives onsite, in this case in downtown Houston, with all elements of the structure clearly defined and ready to install to the exact planned geometry. All elements are premade to minimise site works. The City of Houston believes that great cities are defined by their public spaces. The creation of Discovery Green with its catenary lighting structure has helped to rejuvenate the city and reactivate the downtown area.

THE PLACE BEHIND THE ROWS

The first open space constructed in Russia in fifty years, Zaryadye Park is a landmark project that celebrates the native environment

O

n a historically charged site in the centre of Moscow, just steps from the Kremlin and Red Square, Zaryadye Park sits on the site of “Russia’s collective past and evolving aspirations”. This centrally located patch of real estate remained unused for the past five years, patiently waiting for its latest incarnation as a vibrant public space. In 2012, an international competition launched by the City of Moscow netted a winning design by an international design consortium led by Diller Scofidio + Renfro for a unique public park. The winning concept presented a multi-use public space that is simultaneously a park, urban plaza, cultural amenity and community framework for recreational engagement.

Zaryadye Park (meaning "the place behind the rows") is a complex layering of natural landscapes over constructed hardscapes, creating an intriguing mix of urban and rural elements that blend the natural with the artificial to form what the architects refer to as “Wild Urbanism”. Combining the historically formal aesthetic of a traditional Russia with a lusher, meandering rural sensibility, the park brings together the elements of central Moscow to provide a link between the city’s central zones. Laid out in a series of terraced zones, visitors to the park are able to experience four diverse, climatic zones: tundra, steppe, forest and wetland. The zones, layered over each other, form a 14,000sqm combined area of programmed spaces.

Main features of the park include a ‘floating’ bridge, media centre, ice cave, nature centre, philharmonic concert hall and amphitheatres. The floating bridge cantilevers 70m out over the Moscow River, offering visitors unparalleled views of the landscape and the nearby Kremlin. Formed in the shape of the letter V, the bridge hovers over the embankment without a single visible support and can safely hold up to 4000 people simultaneously. The Zaryadye Park concert hall sits under a glass dome that holds an organ and a transformable stage to serve multiple functions as a concert venue. The hall will contain two venues, a large hall for 1560 seats and a smaller hall that contains 400 seats.


www.outdoordesign.com.au

The adjoining amphitheatre is comprised of a covered dome with a “glass bark” exterior to protect visitors from the rain. It is the world’s largest translucent structure that will provide a warm climate under its cover, even in Russia’s harsh winters. Its stepped interior descends smoothly from hill to stage, with wooden seating and paths filled with small pebbles, which form part of the theatre’s natural drainage system. The main amphitheatre can accommodate up to 2500 people. A smaller amphitheatre on the site, which features a media screen for film screenings, concerts and lectures, has been designed to fit 400 people. In a bid to encourage year-round use of the park, augmented microclimates have been created as part of the sectional overlay construction. The conscious calibration of topography means passive climate-control strategies minimise the wind and help plants to stay greener longer. In addition, the amphitheatres “glass crust” helps to keep the air warmer during the colder months, while the motorised panels

“Our ambition for this central park in Moscow is to express itself as a national park for Russia at large.” - Mary Margaret Jones, Hargreaves Associates can be opened to expel heat in the summer. These engineered microclimates encourage gathering within performance spaces and natural zones. “We have integrated holistic strategies to keep the park activated year-round, including constructed environments that temper the city’s harsh climate; social and cultural programs geared towards nature exploration; and a long-term, sustainable management model,” confirm Citymakers founding partners Petr Kudryavtsev and Andrey Grinev.

STREET FURNITURE AUSTRALIA SMART PRODUCTS COMPANY PROFILE Street Furniture Australia’s purpose is to bring lasting enjoyment to public places. The company believes that street furniture plays a central role in animating and connecting places. It ensures a place is vital, enjoyable and enriching for its community. Street Furniture Australia's active research and development program places users at the heart of everything they do. Together with their design, custodian and contracting partners, they strive to make public spaces accessible and enriching for all. SMART CITIES AND FUTURE STREET Street Furniture Australia debuted three new products at the Future Street installation in front of Customs House, Circular Quay, as part of the 2017 International Festival of Landscape Architecture. The event aimed to present how streets could better support communities in the future.

Escola Smart Bin | A prototype was displayed to showcase a working fill monitor in action. This technology shows custodians exactly when their bins need to be emptied, helping maintenance teams avoid wasted trips, saving time, money, and reducing their carbon footprint. There are a range of technologies and hardware available to put under the hood of a smart bin, including solar charging and distributed power, wifi hotspots, public service announcements, pedestrian and traffic monitoring, environmental sensors and fire alerts.

Escola Smart Bin

Smart Bins can also be fitted with speakers that thank good citizens for making deposits. Choose a classic "Good on ya, mate" and applause, or create a custom "Thank you". PowerMe | This charging table was also a hit at Future Street, with visitors able to plug their devices and recharge outdoors for free. Sometimes three or four phones, tablets or laptops were seen plugged into the one table. PowerMe is weather and future proof, with new technologies easily integrated. Simply lift the lid and connect via cable (BYO) or integrate wireless charging through the tabletop for select devices.

Aria Seating System with PowerMe Table

The unit can be hooked up to become a wifi hotspot and fitted with sensors to track use. It's also an easy place to rest your coffee cup. ARIA | At Future Street, PowerMe was integrated with a third prototype, the modular ARIA seating system. ARIA is Street Furniture Australia’s response to a growing desire from custodians and specifiers for site-specific furniture. Easily connect modular benches, seats, backrests, arms, corner pieces and side tables for seamless settings tailored to the needs of the people who will work, live and play in the space. ARIA is a kit of parts, a seating system with a contemporary aesthetic. It feels custom, but comes at the more accessible price of standard products.

PowerMe is future-proof ...

... with a selfclosing door.

Each of the three prototype products will be launched and available in 2018. Contact the sales team for enquiries. SERVICEABLE AREAS Global CONTACT Street Furniture Australia Offices in NSW | QLD | VIC | WA | SA P 1800 027 799 F 1300 003 218 E info@streetfurniture.com W www.streetfurniture.com

Compost as a landscape solution Compost can be a valuable input in urban landscapes. Made from source-separated household food and garden waste, collected from kerbsides, compost is processed commercially to Australian Standards (AS4454) to be safe, free of contaminants and weed seed. Compost builds healthier soils, improves plant growth and increases productivity. NSW has set a target to divert 75 per cent of all waste from landfill by 2021. To achieve it, there needs to be effective food and garden waste recycling because organics make up the largest single waste stream going to landfill. The NSW Government’s Environment Protection Authority (EPA) is investing $100 million through the waste-levy funded Waste Less, Recycle More for organics collections and processing as well as grants to develop new markets for the final compost product. From the first round of these grants, known as the Organics Market Development grants, projects showcased the benefits of compost in multiple ways. They included urban landscape applications using specified compost blankets and compost-based top dressing. In the compost blanket project, The Hills Bark Blower company in conjunction with Roads and Maritime Services used the product for erosion control, revegetation and rehabilitation of new and existing roadsides, with great results. The compost blanket can also be used for many other urban and rural erosion landscape solutions. With the top dressing project, AgEnviro Solutions worked with NSW Football and Northern NSW Football to demonstrate how compost builds resilient turf on sporting fields. The findings pave the way for specified compost-based top dressing to be used for a variety of turf and green space applications, especially in high traffic areas. Go to epa.nsw.gov.au/organics to find out more about these projects and the grants.
