Curio’s Approach
Our approach at Redfern Station was to work as an integrated part of the design team to deliver a cohesive interpretation and placemaking outcome that celebrates the historic and contemporary stories of the place through the voices of the local community.
Cultural heritage and contemporary social history are woven seamlessly into the design of the project in many forms including public art, landscape design, graphics and imagery, ground inlays and projections, to create a cohesive and authentic sense of place, and a rich and multi-layered experience for the local community and commuters.
