Place Activation Update

The Place Activation  Project I mentioned a while back is progressing quite nicely now.  Tomas O'Malley (Architect and project mentor), has kept us all on a good path.

We have booths and outdoor seating, decorative panels and a large chess set under way, amongst other things.  I don't want to give away too much at this time!!

We are all hoping that the various small businesses that have been targeted for this project will benefit from our efforts to enliven their surrounds.

I will be posting some photos here soon, when I have solved the problem I have been having, trying to upload files.     C. X

Place Activation Project

CreativeRegions have developed quite a few Place Activation projects in Bundaberg since the floods. I will be involved with the latest one.

The project is about targeting some of the ‘tired’ business areas, particularly in North Bundaberg and revamping them into vibrant, livable spaces.

Bundaberg City Council has approved to have the North Bundaberg CBD area a trial street-side dining zone for 3 months.

Project mentor is the very talented architect Tomas O’Malley.

Place activation artists are Jennifer McDuff, Marlies Oakley and myself. 

                                                                                         

This project has a very small materials and trade budget, so a challenge has been set for us to come up with some stunning and innovative ideas, within that budget.
