GC Tidal Park
As a new cultural and civic hub, Evandale, Gold Coast will nurture a wide host of program, such as art museum, performing arts centre, as well as an extensive Artscape across the site. Drawing inspiration from Australian Indigenous art and its deep connection to the landscape, we will inscribe the site, to reveal the energy, colour and richness that nature holds. The first is a network of dikes, which is laid out mimicking the pattern of a dried earth, to create pathways for circulation and access, for gathering people and bringing to the sites of activity and the waters edge.The second is a network of water, of wetlands, ponds, and pools. They are not only beautiful; they are functional, for flood management, for water conservation, and for increasing biodiversity.
