Urban Ground banner

Urban Ground is a year-round, vibrant community hub where people can meet and enjoy multiple, changing cuisines from around the world. It includes a food truck park, a kids’ play area with half-court basketball and handball, grandstand seating, an indoor restaurant and cafe, alfresco dining, indoor/outdoor bar and a fully operational distillery. Urban Ground offers a unique dining experience away from the city — at the source of production.

Existing buildings are retained and eroded structures form ruins. Nature reclaims the site, creating pockets for occupation and flexible food and beverage opportunities within a park-like setting.

About the
Professional

Australia’s most awarded sustainable design firm, and its most dependable.

Our Approach

Breathe undertakes meaningful projects we can be proud of — those that align with our purpose and values.

Since we focus on maximising positive impact, many of our projects don’t fit the common definition of ‘architecture’.

We work to understand who we’re designing for. We strive to inspire, engage and support our clients and the broader communities we serve.

We prioritise social, environmental and economic sustainability in every project. We question the status quo to pursue outcomes that are informed by, and seek to better, those that came before.

Above all, we prioritise ethics along with aesthetics, and design without ego, to create the best outcomes for our clients and their communities.
