PRAHRAN MARKET, ELIZABETH STREET PARKLET, CITY OF STONNINGTON
Mainstreet Australia award finalist was given to a playful, welcoming and fun popup parklet which opened in June 2022 in collaboration with Rightside Creative. We reimagined parking spaces to improve and generate a better street life creating places to relax, dine and offer vibrant market spill out.
We can develop a strategic framework of opportunities and feasibility across precincts. With Wyndham City we have created place led activations, wayfinding, and public realm infrastructure improvements to revitalise local centres and enhance economic development opportunities for community and businesses. These initiatives range in impact from ‘meanwhile’ and temporary to semi-permanent improvements. Photo credit: @peterfosterphoto and @mamam_aus
‘POP UP’ ACTIVATION: TARNEIT, VICTORIA
Little colourful huts were designed as a playful reference to the ‘shelter sheds’ that Caroline Chisholm created in 1855 for the families walking from Melbourne to the Gold Fields in Ballarat. Little bits of gold paint are an accent throughout the space in collaboration with Rightside Creative. Bright colourful stripes have been painted on the footpath around the park in the same palette.
