Structural Soils at Homebush Bay

A great video filmed last week with our valued partner at Benedict Group to be showcased at Australian Institute of Landscape Architects (AILA).

Simon Leake and Murray Fraser revisit the innovative strategies used over 25 years ago for the Sydney Olympic Park project.

There was a lot of improvisation and innovation with the Sydney Olympic park project. It was advertised as 'the green games' with a focus on conservation and sustainability so the landscape architects were more than happy to experiment with environmentally responsible approaches to urban horticulture and landscape development.

Take a deep dive into the structural soil development and the unique challenges that the Sydney basin presents, the installation of the Fig and Manchurian pear tree pits, and more.
