context

Barton Park has been reimagined as a vibrant recreational hub for the local community – celebrating green space, encouraging active lifestyles and creating inclusive areas for social connection. In collaboration with Mode Design, Street + Garden was engaged to design and supply a distinctive suite of outdoor furniture that invites play, pause and participation.

The furniture collection is purposefully designed to enhance the user experience across multiple zones of the park – from community gathering areas to spaces for active recreation. Drawing inspiration from the kinetic energy of sport and movement, the decorative pattern integrated into the furniture surfaces mimics the playful trajectories of bouncing tennis and table tennis balls.

opportunities

This project allowed Street + Garden to play a key role in shaping a public space that prioritises community wellbeing and active outdoor living. The furniture was designed with a focus on durability, usability and playful engagement – supporting a wide range of experiences from energetic table tennis matches to peaceful relaxation in the park.

Working closely with Mode Design, Street + Garden helped shape Barton Park into a dynamic and engaging destination that encourages interaction, activity and enjoyment for all ages.
