Whowe are

TCL is one of the world’s most highly acclaimed landscape architecture and urban design firms. Over the past 25 years, we have delivered a wide range of projects across a variety of public and private settings, from urban waterfronts to desert walking trails. We work both nationally and internationally, undertaking a detailed exploration of context, site and community, with a focus on the poetic expression of landscape and contemporary culture.

Four streams of investigation have informed TCL’s work:

• contemporary urban life and global culture

• the elemental power of site and landscape

• artistic practice in a range of disciplines

• the creation of a sustainable future

Through a dynamic and collaborative dialogue with clients, communities, academics, and colleagues, we have delivered an eclectic body of work that speaks of quality, commitment, beauty and richness. This is achieved within real world constraints of time, management and cost.

TCL is Australia’s most awarded landscape architecture firm, having won over 120 awards in the past 25 years.

TCL have twice been awarded the prestigious ‘Landscape of the Year’ award at the World Architecture Festival for the National Arboretum Canberra (in collaboration with TZG Architects in 2014 and the Australian Garden in collaboration with Paul Thompson) in 2013.

In 2014, TCL was awarded the highly coveted 8th Rosa Barba Award at the International Biennale of Landscape Architecture Barcelona for Auckland Waterfront, New Zealand in collaboration with WA Landscape Architects.

We bring to each project the following:

Robust and Meaningful VisionsTCL is renowned for developing masterplans and conceptual designs that respond to their context and provide compelling visions for the future. Designs that are embraced and owned by all stakeholders.

A Collaborative ApproachWe are highly recognised for our love of collaborating with clients, stakeholders, communities, academics, artists, and other consultants. We value and respect difference and diversity.

An Ecological BaseWe have worked creatively with environmentally sustainable principles since the company’s inception. We embrace sustainable practices in all of our projects to minimise the ecological footprint and maximise integrated environmental systems such as water sensitive urban design (WSUD).

Sustainable Communities and EconomiesTCL has always maintained a strong community development focus with stakeholder consultation being an important part of the practice’s approach to projects. We also recognise and have a keen awareness of the importance of creating sustainable economic outcomes for our clients.

ResearchOur practice is committed to undertaking ongoing research and has a dedicated research arm known as Tickle. Tickle speculates on the future of the expanding field of landscape architecture and urban design, and challenges existing paradigms. In addition Directors Kate Cullity and Perry Lethlean have recently completed PhD studies which explored undercurrent themes of TCL’s design practice.

What we create

Cultural InterpretationUrban DesignMasterplansWaterfrontsInfrastructureParks and GardensNational Parks Environmental PlanningPlayResidentialEducationArt & Festivals

Cultural InterpretationMany projects have been for significant cultural institutions such as museums, botanic

gardens, zoos, arboretums and sanctuaries. These projects call for an in-depth analysis

and interpretation of the stories the institution wishes to disseminate. They challenge

us to compose and design a compelling, intrinsic and coherent narrative and material

presence that speaks of an environmental and cultural history, as well as contemporary

life. Our cultural projects are immersive and intrinsically interpretive rather than sign

based and didactic.

Urban DesignTCL understand that urban design is a field that involves the integration of many allied

disciplines in a collaborative manner. To this end we have led project teams in the

design and revitalisation of many urban settings, waterfronts, streetscapes, public

spaces and retail environments with an emphasis in projects of cultural significance.

This work has included masterplanning through to the resolution of built work.

Masterplans TCL have delivered public realm masterplans and framework plans for many complex

urban projects and institutions. Each are characterised by a deep understanding of the

individual culture and character of the site, as well as a compelling and poetic design

led vision for their future.

WaterfrontsTCL are renowned for our experience in designing successful and engaging waterfronts

that reinvigorate the sites and provide a renewed connection between the city, the

precinct and water. In particular, we have transformed Geelong Waterfront and Auckland

Waterfront to become vital public and community focussed destinations. This work

taps into the rich heritage of the sites through composition, selection of materials, site

specific artworks and infrastructure, the retention of valued and authentic elements

and programming.

InfrastructureTCL have led the design and implementation of a number of freeway statement projects,

where functional infrastructure such as sound walls and bridges, as well as stand-alone

large scale artworks become sculptural iconic elements in the landscape. A number of

TCL staff are trained in architecture and this has allowed us to design site and project

specific infrastructure elements such as shelters, tram stops and

freeway noise attenuation walls.

Parks and GardensTCL love the time honoured art of garden making. The composition, patterning, sensory,

aesthetic and immersive experience of our gardens and parks employ an understanding

of cultural and environmental history, garden design principles, interpretation design

and horticultural practice.

National Parks TCL have worked extensively in Australian National Parks particularly in South Australia

where we have instigated a ‘whole of park approach’. This approach sets a framework

for all visitor facilities within the parks and is predicated on minimal intervention, careful

editing and a fundamental respect for the elemental landscape. This approach is also

evident at the Uluru Kata Tjuta Aboriginal Centre where consultation with the local

aboriginal owners was a seminal aspect of the project.

Environmental PlanningWe are known for our sensitivity when working on projects of environmental significance

to achieve a holistic and sustainable framework, outcome and future. In some instances

we edit what exists to amplify the elemental experience, while at other times we create

immersive environments that elucidate environmental messages and meanings.

PlayTCL delight in creating imaginative and thematic play spaces as well as immersive,

non-didactic interpretive learning environments.

ResidentialTCL believe that the overarching goal for the design of residential landscapes is to

create home gardens that encourage rejuvenation, relaxation, and enrich daily life. We

love forming a strong relationship with our clients, often collaborate with architects and

where appropriate incorporate contemporary art into the garden. We are recognised

for our expressive planting palettes and strong horticultural knowledge, and for our

ability to draw on the rich legacy of garden design history to create contemporary and

ecologically sensitive gardens.

EducationTCL create external environments that are not only beautiful and artfully designed, but

also places of learning which are ‘fertile ground’ for the exchange of ideas, socialisation,

imagination, reflection and reverie; a setting for the cultivation of the mind and body. Our

education projects challenge off-campus learning by creating a strong campus identity.

Our experience and research in education give us an appreciation of new pedagogies

and technologies that facilitate progressive ways students can engage with external

spaces.

Art & Festivals

TCL have created both permanent and temporary sculptural installations within Australia

and overseas. This includes works for a number of Australian and International art and

garden festivals, as well as a significant installation for the Australian Pavilion at the 2011

World Expo in Shanghai. Each installation has explored and abstracted particular and

compelling qualities of the Australian Landscape.

Cultural Interpretation

Opposite above: Uluru-Kata Tjuta

Aboriginal Cultural Centre, NT. The

bus and car park are deliberately held

back 300 metres from the building

encouraging visitors to walk through

the desert landscape. Paths are

constructed from cement stabilised site

sand and edged with dried branches

collected from within the park.

Above: Australian Garden

Cranbourne, VIC. A contemporary

botanic garden which celebrates the

wonder and idiosyncratic qualities of

the Australian landscape.

Parallel bands of Melaleucas arranged

alongside abstracted sand spits,

provide a threshold into the Coastal

Edge Garden.

Opposite below: National Arboretum

Canberra, ACT. The design is based

on the theme of 100 Forests. Each

of the 100 forests is individually

arranged differently with their

particular configuration responding to

horticultural requirements and cultural

themes.

Following page: Australian Garden

Cranbourne, VIC. Australia is often

described as a country either in drought

or flood. Water, or its absence, is the

principle organising structure within the

garden.

Below: National Arboretum Canberra,

ACT. One hundred forests of rare and

endangered tree species are arranged

in orthogonal patterns across an

undulating topography. The sculptured

landforms of the ‘Central Clearing’ form

part of the visitor arrival sequence.

Opposite below: Forest Gallery,

Melbourne Museum, VIC. The

Forest Gallery interprets the tall

Mountain Ash forests of Central

Victoria by incorporating a hyperreal

living ecosystem into the heart of the

institution. The Forest is intended

to challenge preconceived ideas of

the role and image of a traditional

museum.

Opposite above: Wild Sea, Melbourne

Zoo, VIC. Wild Sea Exhibit creates

an immersive and interpretive

environment. ‘The Deep’ is 4 metres

under the ground allowing a magical

view of gliding seals.

Above: Lonsdale Street Dandenong,

VIC. A linear garden along the length

of the road, with double rows of Pin

Oaks, provides seating opportunities.

Opposite below: North Terrace,

Adelaide, SA. During the Adelaide

International Festival of Art 2012,

images were projected onto each

of the historic buildings along North

Terrace. The civic space of the street

allowed for a very large audience to

watch the ‘Northern Lights’ installation.

Opposite above: Manly Corso,

NSW. The Corso is an iconic place

in Sydney’s consciousness, with

thousands of visitors traversing its

length between the Sydney Harbour

ferry terminal and the Pacific Ocean

at Manly Beach. The design creates

an open and spacious public place,

overlaid with visually strong design

elements, including playful

seating discs.

Urban Design

Following Page: Adelaide Airport, SA.

The design of the plaza takes its cues

from the patterns of the wider South

Australian landscape as viewed from the

air. This central plaza is located between

the new entry and new car park and

the terminal.

Above: Bank Street Parklets, SA.

Bank Street is rejuvenated as a

shared and pedestrian prioritised

street integrating parklets into the

streetscape, with artist Sam Songailo’s

road graphic. The upgrade provides

greater economic opportunity for

street traders and enhanced social

sustainability enabling the community

space to engage in a lively

city laneway.

Opposite above: North Terrace,

Adelaide, SA. A view along North

Terrace shows the generous inner and

outer paths and the repetitive rhythm

of seating, paving, ornamental planting

grass and forecourts.

Opposite below: Lonsdale Street

Dandenong, VIC. This 500 metre long

boulevard establishes a pedestrian

and cyclist priority environment and

a vibrant shopping centrepiece for

Dandenong via the extension of

patterned paving and creation of the

garden rooms.

Masterplanning

Above: Victoria Square /

Tarntanyangga, SA. A re-envisioned

urban park in the centre of the city to

reassert Victoria Square as the heart of

Adelaide. The northern end contains

an event space and ephemeral

water feature while the southern

end houses a centre for Aboriginal

culture – ‘Mullabakka’, a large garden

of Southern Australian plants, a

productive garden and biofiltration

garden. Twin arbors link both sides of

the square and contain various small

buildings and elements within

their canopies.

Opposite below: The North

Terrace Precincts Redevelopment

Masterplan, SA. The Six Guiding

Principles. The North Terrace

Redeveloped Masterplan provided

a vision for the entire 1 km length of

North Terrace, including forecourts to

the adjacent cultural institutions and

Universities.

Opposite above: Point Nepean

Masterplan, VIC. The masterplan

evaluated the landscape and its

heritage to determine the optimum

use for the quarantine station and its

many heritage buildings. Interpretation,

wayfinding and circulation were also

defined to form an integrated plan to

guide the park’s future.

1. Reinforce the Treshold 2. Convert the Terrace Walk

3. Define the City Edge 4. Foster the City - River Connection

5. Animate the Cultural Heart

Guiding Principles – Key Moves

6. Promote Terrace Vitality

The North Terrace Redevelopment,

SA. Having all the cultural institutions

along one terrace is unique. The

redevelopment of North Terrace allows

each institution to be heralded while

providing cohesion along the

whole length.

Above: Auckland Waterfront, New

Zealand. Overlapping activities and

programs are orientated to the north,

via the armature of a gantry – an

evocative response to the industrial

language of the site. The gantry is

a 100 metre long by 9 metre high

structure designed to be part folly, play

structure, lookout, arbour and event

framework.

Waterfronts

Opposite: Auckland Waterfront,

New Zealand. Jellicoe Harbour

(situated adjacent to the North Wharf

Promenade) is used for a diverse

array of maritime activities, including

container shipping, ferry services and

commercial fishing.

road network, responding to the broad

scale of the interchange and the

driver’s experience at speed. Specialist

LED lighting highlights the ‘Snake Wall’

and underpass artwork.

Infrastructure

Opposite above: Adelaide Tram

Shelters, SA. The long vistas down

North Terrace and King William

Streets are an important part of the

character and integrity of Adelaide’s

two ceremonial streets. The shelters

are therefore as slender as possible,

reinforcing the linearity of the street

and presenting the minimum number

of vertical obstacles to the view.

Opposite below: Riverbank

Pedestrian Bridge, SA. The sculptural

bridge links the City of Adelaide to

the Adelaide Oval. The glass facade

reflects the movement of water, further

intensifying the bridge’s connection to

the River Torrens.

Craigieburn Bypass, VIC.

Motorists arriving along the Hume

Highway from Sydney first encounter

the ‘Curtain Wall’ which flows alongside

the driver until ultimately twisting to

become a pedestrian bridge over the

roadway. At this point, the view of

Melbourne is revealed.

Brisbane Airport Link, QLD. The key to

the success of the Southern Connection

was driven by a compelling geometric

layout, with repetitive jacaranda purple

louvres reinforcing the tunnel entrance.

TCL’s monograph, ‘Making Sense of Landscape’ is a celebration of 25 years of TCL’s

work, framed around three central themes of Narrative, Material Presence and Civic.

The introduction states that:

‘To read the book is to read co-existing multiple narratives to capture layered

impressions of TCL’s most personally and publicly influential projects. This collection

presents a diverse dialogue of views where 17 contributing authors, project designers

and everyday patrons reflect upon the work. In this way the book, much like a TCL

project, becomes a process of many voices and collaborations across a range of

contributors.’
