位于Mends St Jetty码头南珀斯海岸上的Mindeerup广场，其创造了抵达南珀斯后一处令人难忘地的景观。最初的区位规划设想了这个地方作为，包括国家标志，区域滨海公园和当地人的地方。

Mindeerup Plaza on the South Perth Foreshore at the Mends St Jetty creates a memorable arrival to South Perth from the city. The initial place planning imagined the gravitas of the site at scale of State icon, regional foreshore parkland and a place for the locals.

该设计重新设想将滨海公园作为从伊丽莎白码头（Elizabeth Quay）到珀斯动物园（Perth Zoo）这段非常热门旅游路线的标志性部分之一，将动物园的体验扩展到主要街道，增强城市风貌，并促进当地企业发展。奇观和好奇心促使人们逗留，大大小小动物雕塑的“游行”激发了人们想象力，产生宣传效果，从而支持了地方企业和动物园。到了晚上，广场变成了表演场所。与当地的Noongar艺术家和照明工程师合作，精心策划了灯光和声音的景观，以提供公共剧院，使人们沉浸在水、动物和幻想的梦幻世界中。

The design re-imagines the foreshore park as an iconic part of the popular tourist journey from Elizabeth Quay to Perth Zoo, extending the zoo experience through the main street, enhancing city views, and boosting local businesses. Spectacle and curiosity encourage people to stop and stay. The ‘parade’ of animal sculptures big and small has sparked people’s imagination, generating publicity and support for local businesses and the zoo. At night the piazza becomes a performance space. In collaboration with a local Noongar artist and lighting engineers a light and sound scape has been curated to provide public theatre immersing people into a dreamtime world of water, animals and spirits.

该广场还是珀斯水滨公园沿岸重要的区域性节点，被慢跑者，步行者和骑自行车的俗称为“桥到桥”。聚焦到地方社区，当地居民和工人经常使用它。在设计中加入引人入胜的叙述是创造难忘体验的基础。叙述围绕着三个关键主题进行，包括附近的珀斯动物园、享有绿树成荫南珀斯美誉的郊区、以及作为为南珀斯提供服务的三只码头之一的门德斯街码头，这个码头不断提醒着河运对早期珀斯定居者的重要性。

The plaza is also a significant regional node along the Perth Water foreshore loop, known colloquially as ‘Bridge to Bridge’ by joggers, walkers and cyclists. At a local level it is used frequently by local residents and workers. Building an engaging narrative into the design has been fundamental to creating a memorable experience. The narrative is built around 3 key themes including the nearby Perth Zoo, South Perth’s reputation as a green leafy suburb and the Mends Street Jetty as one of three jetties servicing South Perth and a lasting reminder of the importance of river transport to the early Perth settlers.

利用动物作为设计灵感的想法是在与当地家庭和商人的社区互动中提出的。在与动物园协商后，选择了食蚁兽和褶皱的脖子蜥蜴，以提高对濒临灭绝的本地物种的认识。这些动物雕塑将动物园的影响范围从动物园的边界扩展到了河流和前滨。尽管动物园可能不再鼓励游客去接触动物，但这些雕塑使各个年龄段的人们都渴望与他人进行眼神交流。

The idea to use animals as the inspiration for the design was initiated during community engagement with local families and traders. The numbat and frilled neck lizard were selected in consultation with the zoo, to raise recognition of endangered local species. The animal sculptures extends the zoos influence beyond the zoo’s boundary to the river and foreshore. While zoo may no longer encourage visitors to handle animals, the sculptures bring to life the desire for eye-to-eye contact, shared by people of all ages.

社区反馈是通过全面的社区咨询计划收集的，许多设计思想在设计过程中得以贯彻并在现场实现。

Community feedback was collected through a comprehensive community consultation program with many of the design ideas being carried through in the design process and realised on site.
