Masterplan

by CUSP

Two separate play areas provide multiple play opportunities, one a fully shaded space for toddlers and the other containing a custom net and slide structure for older kids.

By Eureka Landscapes

Custom precast concrete shelters provide generous spaces for gatherings, with BBQs, a bubbler and an amenities block providing all the facilities a family would need to spend a day in the park.
All the key items in the park are linked by a central sinuous paved area framed by sandstone seating walls with landmark mature Norfolk Island Pines providing shade at key moments.
