A place of belonging, designed with Country at its centre.

Intent
Design that begins with Country.
Moondani Balluk goes considerably beyond conventional planting. Country, water and cultural narrative shape the landscape from the first move, integrating deep-soil planting and public art into a place of gathering and belonging.
Not an outsider trying to establish credentials. A substantial body of work, done with care, that lets the landscape carry meaning.Sample project narrative

Water as the organising idea.
A sequence of planted swales and gathering spaces follows the natural fall of the site, making water visible and slowing it through the landscape before it leaves.
