Miles is a country town in outback Queensland , Australia . It features Baobab Trees ( bottle trees ) and so these were chosen as the basis of Designed forms for the project , not withstanding the need for function. Working in collaboration with a Landscape Architect firm the Designs compliment their general vision for the site. Intricate but simple shapes were created to represent the bottle tree forms, especially apparent in waste bins and Seats.
