The park was designed through extensive engagement with the First Nations communities as a place for commemoration, reflection, education, and healing. The focal point of the park is the circular performance space which reflects the site's Indigenous significance as a traditional place of gathering, storytelling, ceremony, and cultural exchange, while providing a contemporary community hub that celebrates and strengthens Ipswich's connection to Country and First Nations heritage.
GX Outdoors was commissioned to supply key infrastructure for this landmark space that enhances both function and storytelling throughout the site. This includes:
- A fully Customised Shelter, a defining feature of the circular performance space, featuring laser cut artwork informed by First Nations consultation, creating a striking and meaningful focal point within the park.
- Akuna Drinking Fountain; and
- Citistyle Heritage Bin Enclosures
The Sable Core Ten finish on the suite of products was selected to complement the surrounding landscape, with a weathered steel aesthetic that references the area's rich cultural and historical heritage while maintaining a contemporary civic character. The durable powder-coated surface delivers long-term resistance to Australia's harsh climate, ensuring enduring performance with minimal maintenance.
GX Outdoors was proud to deliver these elements to help create a cohesive, welcoming, and respectful space that invites reflection and connection in a truly significant setting.
