EPCΛD has worked with the University for twenty years on a large variety of projects. Our commitment led to an appointment to prepare strategies and plans enabling the educational campus to evolve to meet the new and emerging demands of the twenty first century.
Our strategies enabled the university to take its place as what is now one of the State’s major urban growth centers for the next 15 years. The Curtin initiative is a major activity center on the new proposed “Knowledge Arc” public transit system that connects Nedlands and the University of Western Australia through the CBD to Bentley. EPCΛDs key role has delivered an ambitious plan that enables the full potential of the area to be achieved within a quality environment. The Development framework creates a matrix of quality spaces and streets that will enable development partnerships to deliver a mixed use transport orientated development offering employment, research, education and residential opportunities within a strong landscape setting.
Our plans have now set the foundations for the university’s evolution and expansion into a unique integrated mixed use community with a focus on innovation and education. It will be a place where businesses and entrepreneurs of all sizes will be embedded within neighborhoods of knowledge. A place to live, learn, work and play, where strong relationships can develop between colleagues and creatives.
