Malop Street Green Spine

After identifying unconnected and difficult to navigate pockets of Central Geelong, Malop Street arose as an ideal opportunity to unify the area through a Green Spine.

While functionality and connection drove the design solutions for Malop Street, greening and revegetation became a way to create a place to go to, not just a place to go through. Outlines designed a linear park connecting Johnstone Park and Eastern Gardens. The first stages culminated in the Botanic Walk, a conceptual development of the Green Spine vision. Including a lush mix of exotic and indigenous plants, the Botanic Walk is filled with great opportunities to rejuvenate, gather and connect.
