The Crescent Plaza, Fairfield

Years in the planning, this building block adjacent Fairfield train station was purchased by Council to revitalise the town centre and provide outdoor facilities for residents, commuters and local shop owners.

 

Incorporating various seating elements and depicting the history of the locality, this vibrant design by Group GSA incorporated numerous level changes and design elements.

 

Elements include decking, seating, historical photos and text, a large television screen lighting, local murals, metal screens, folded yellow metal seating elements, artificial turf, mature tree plantings, raised planter boxes and a patterned paving pattern.

 

These numerous elements come together creating a fun, bright practical space that provides respite from the main street. Local context is reinforced with the historical photos as a subtle tribute to the past.
