RAVENSWOOD TOWNSHIP

 

Gugu-Badhun Country

Placemaking

Continuing 2017

​

Ravenswood is a township in decline,  despite relatively high tourist visitation.

​

There is a push among locals to offer something more than the stock-standard "Ye Olde Worlde" offer common to many gold-rush era villages.

​

Our analysis revealed that there was a distinct lack of common meeting space for locals, and that the pub/hub did not have outdoor area, to host events (such as weddings etc)

​

Regional Design Service designed a simple,  cost-effective plaza to be placed on disused land abutting the hotel; which would be accessible to everyone and used by everyone - a 'Town Square', if you like.

​

We acknowledge the Bpangerang, Wiradjuri, Jaitmatang, Yorta Yorta and Waveroo people on whose country we work and create.

​

We also acknowledge the Traditional Custodians throughout Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander lands where our projects are placed. We recognise their ongoing connection to Country, land and waters that were never ceded and pay our respects to Elders, past, present and emerging.

 

Regional Design Service has a Reconciliation Action Plan which can be viewed here. The plan was developed with Reconciliation Australia and guides us on our reconciliation journey and that of our clients, collaborators and community.
