Sydney Olympic Park - Stadia
In 2020, TCL and TZG were the successful winners of the Sydney Olympic Park Stadia competition - revitalising and reimagining the Sydney 2000 Homebush Stadium with a bold and diverse public realm transformation.

About

This public realm transformation is centred around the concept of the Floating Garden, a hybrid landscape combining event, garden and promenade.

The sweeping gesture of the Floating Garden heightens the arrival experience for the stadium, whilst creating a dramatic native garden that the emerging Olympic Park community can enjoy. The Floating Garden - dramatic in scale - creates a wild, immersive and sensory landscape, comprising weaving pathways, play spaces, belvederes, water journeys and retail opportunities.

A bold landscape, cloaks the precinct with much-needed biodiversity, a cooling canopy and diverse visitor and community experiences.

Housing a botanic garden of meadows, wetlands, and woodlands, this destinational design will not only attract new visitors but also engage existing users with the natural environment. The Forest Promenade, which is added to the circumference of the stadium, adds a beautiful colonnade of trees, reinforcing ease of circulation. The transformed promenade links residents, visitors, and fans to the excitement within the Stadium, creating a lasting legacy for this iconic stadium.
