A few years ago, the Palmerston Council had the bold ambition to transform Palmerston, Australia, from a city for cars to a city for people. At the core of this project was Goyder Square – the city’s beating heart – which was completely transformed by Turf Design Studio thanks to a thoughtful combination of adaptive reuse, infrastructure repurposing and landscape design.
Now Goyder Square is a busy, multipurpose and easily adaptable public square, home to a splash pad, a gathering spot for picnics, sports games and other cultural events, and many more community-oriented activities.
