Woodlea’s Walk of honour
In what was a military base, the developers of Woodlea are setting the standard in quality and the pace for the delivery of public open space.
This urban development, a JV between Mirvac and VP Properties, has been the fastest growing development in Australia in the last two years.
Naturform has worked on this project from the first stage and now are at Stage 38 creating bespoke play and structural elements throughout, challenging convention and industry norms.
A 7.5m play tower overlooks the rest of the playground, waterplay and basketball half-court areas. We designed shelters with custom furniture linked by boardwalks with scooter trails, skate elements and recycled timber arbours and entry posts.
The Walk of Honour marks each of the wars that Australia has been involved in with each tree dedicated to a different fallen soldier. Memorial plaques provide an insight into each of the conflicts. This developer is going above and beyond just as these soldiers did. The parks are a destination for visitors throughout the region as well as a mark of respect.
