Preserving and enhancing the indigenous vegetation on the site at Bushy Creek Reserve was key to this design for Whitehorse City Council.

The playspace was reshaped to develop a grassed area for picnics and ball play, and is complemented by a winding trail with challenges for scooters and tricycles.

The equipment genuinely does cater for all ages, and encourages imaginative and social play within a relatively small area.

Constructed with subtle colours including rust, timber and pebbles, it is a quiet but engaging place for the local community.

It builds on the existing redgum totems with steel sculptures by Nicholas Dunand, and a musical element by Kim Bowman.
