Shaped to emulate the surrounding landscape, this sculpture stands proud at the entry to Paradise Lakes. It's soft, waving form is combined with a custom graded paint to create an organic structure that seems to almost unfold and glisten in the afternoon light. Developed in close collaboration with Urbis and Paradise Lakes themselves, this Entry Feature and Signage Element are a testament to the greater vision of the area and set the tone for the ongoing development.

Bio
Based in Brisbane, Australia, the Street + Garden design studio is an award-winning team specialising in product design for urban spaces. S+G was conceived around the idea that urban products can be much more than simply something to sit on; a reflection of a particular place, community, its natural and built assets, its history, aspirations and future that are important and synonymous with its site.
