Moondani Balluk planter installed

The Moondani Balluk perched wetland planter has just been installed as part of Stage 1 of the landscape works associated with Victoria University’s new accommodation building. Stage 2 of the installation will continue in April where a new place on Country will be established. REALMstudios worked in close collaboration with artist Paola Balla to design the planter, which is also a retrofit to the existing stormwater system. Utilising roof water run-off, it operates through both wicking and flooding. Artist: Paola Balla Architect: Gresley Abas Engineer: Shapeshift Site: Victoria University Footscray
