The design strategy for Pemulwuy stage 3 embraces the Aboriginal Housing Company’s (AHC) emphasis on culture and community and the significance of the site through the built form narrative, an inclusive family model for students and the integration of key public domain spaces and indigenous public art.
Turner created the framework for artists to trace their narrative into the urban fabric. The integrated public artwork ‘family of turtles’ was engaged by AHC to pass on the story of a culture of support and nurturing within the community.
Coordinating with the artist, Turner integrated a variety of pieces into strategic facade panels and key public ceiling and wall elements.
