The parkland was designed as a collection of linked physical and visual elements depicting the site's rich natural and cultural heritage.
The Opportunity
This project represents Stage 1 of what was intended to be the Department of Biodiversity Conservation and Attractions (DBCA) Head Office and WA National Parks Visitor Centre in Bunbury.
Koombana Parkland is a landscaped recreation area where visitors can engage with the rich cultural history of the area and enjoy the picturesque natural scenery. With a design intent of the facility as a collection of linked physical and visual elements depicting the rich natural and cultural heritage of the site, largely cleared and degraded land has been transformed into a landscaped parkland in which the community can recreate, engage and learn.
The Outcome
In collaboration with the landscape architects PLAN E, Artikel provided graphic support for the site’s architectural development, conceptualising and delivering graphics featured throughout the landscape on PLAN E’s totems and plinths.
Due to the site's rich cultural history, the graphics enrich the landscape, communicating the historic locations and highlighting the shipwrecks which were discovered on the site.
The Experience
The site has a rich heritage, both cultural and natural heritage, making it an ideal location for the establishment of an interpretive landscape recreation node.
