FLEMING’S SECOND COMING AT CLYDEVALE

The baby brother to Clydevale’s main park, also designed and constructed by Fleming’s Landscapes, may be a little smaller but is by no means lacking in amenities or style.

The park, approximately 500sqm in size, is a darling of design with a combination of nature play, climbing walls, fitness equipment, dynamic man-constructed mounds, and connectivity to the estate’s wetland network and open recreational space. All this combined with a pallet of trees and plants that will grow to make Park Two a thing of beauty as much as a community asset.

The second park in developer Abiwood’s hero estate, Clydevale, will eventually be home to three parks all designed by Fleming’s and executed by its dynamic construction team and plants experts.

The highlight of all the Clydevale’s parks will be the team’s focus on botanical elements, which make the development rich in canopy cover and stately in appearance, in addition to providing highly functional recreational spaces that are loaded with bespoke features and unique play equipment.

This second park echoes many of the main playspace elements, such as the unique play equipment as seen in the swing design, which is sculptural in execution as much as it is functional.

The pathway connections from the wetland are lined with fitness equipment, and the park incorporates cool seating designs with sunbeds to recline and enjoy the great outdoors.

The client brief was to create a junior and pre-teen park space that provides younger kids and families with ample space to enjoy the outdoors and interact with picnic facilities and shelters for entertaining, as well as a place for locals to walk their pets, or exercise.

Fleming’s has nailed the brief and delivered in spades with the park featuring fun and cool elements, in addition to establishing synergy with the entire community. 

Tree expert Wes Fleming has made his mark with the canopy development at Clydevale – and the second park is no different. Wes hand-selected a collection of deciduous and native trees for seasonal interest and year-round appeal.

Trees included in the park are numerous and include another vibrant avenue of Crepe Myrtle (Lagerstroemia) maples (Acer), the stunning Elm – Ulmus parvifolia ‘Todd’, Zelkova’s and Tilia, as well as the evergreen beauty of the native Brachychiton and Corymbia.

Locals from far and wide have already discovered this awesome community park that is helping to cement Clydevale as the Southeast’s family mecca, drawing crowds from beyond the borders of its own development.
