Ed.Square (Edmondson Park)

The vision for Ed.Square is for a place where connections are made — between the suburbs and the city, between an urban lifestyle and the natural environment, and, most critically, between people. With 700 terrace-style houses, 900 apartments and over 35,000 square metres of retail, this is a sizeable undertaking.

The cornerstone of Ed.Square is formed from the notions of permeability, connection, social spaces, lifelong learning, health and wellness woven around a rich public domain. This “urban epicentre” of community, retail, leisure and living experiences includes a town square divided into different quadrants with a series of streets and laneways.

The design connects the dots between pastoral settlement dating back to the 1800s and a new town centre. It honours the past while creating a future that embodies live, work and play.
