ABOUT THE PROJECT – IN PROGRESS

Nestled within the heart of a prestigious Australian university, a unique project is taking root! This transformative initiative goes beyond the traditional landscape design, offering a bespoke multi-sensory and interactive experience focused on nurturing the mental and emotional well-being of students and staff.

Inspired by the dappled shade of the existing trees, the feature arbours create a mesmerizing play of light on the terraced seating area on site. This not only provides a cool and inviting escape from the summer sun but also fosters a sense of connection with the natural environment. By using a combination of textures, colours, as well as robust and natural materials, the individual hubs will be transformed into an interactive, sensory and engaging space for all to enjoy, mingle and socialize.

As students, visitors and staff members navigate down the terraced platforms, they will meander through native plants and edible herbs, select their favourite herbs from a variety of edible produce, harvest rosemary for the barbeque, or simply pluck some native chamomile on the way to class for a fresh cup of tea!
