Riverside Green gives Brisbane’s growing population a new open space in the heart of the city.
This new ‘green heart’ of South Bank Parklands supports Brisbane’s leisure and recreation needs at a time when inner-city population growth is putting pressure on the city’s existing parks and public spaces.
Visitors can relax and gather on the riverfront’s expansive events lawn, rainforest and subtropical pavilion, which replaces restaurants damaged in the 2011 floods.
The lush and shaded rainforest deck and pavilion is an inviting, free public space designed for Brisbane’s subtropical climate. Stocked with movable furniture, it’s a unique and adaptable place for events and everyday life that leverages a prime riverfront position.

Our purpose is to design the world’s best places – places people love.
Globalisation, climate change, urbanisation, and digitisation present new opportunities and challenges for how we live.
In this fast-changing context, we bring together the best designers and thinkers in a unique collaborative process that results in both beautiful design and measurable value.
We work across architecture, landscape architecture, interior design and urban design - a rich multi-disciplinary mix of skills and perspectives that unlocks the economic, social and cultural value of projects.
We combine our creative design expertise with capabilities in strategy, research, technology and experience design, and we regularly collaborate with experts and partners from further afield.
Through our work, we’re trying to build a more inclusive, sustainable future for communities - and create a more socially and ecologically resilient world.
Our clients look to us for more than our design skills. They want us to help them unlock value for their business and their end users – and find ways to better connect people.
