Inspiring Place creates experiences that respect and reveal the essence of a place: whether it is in the city, the wilderness or somewhere in between.

Landscape Architecture

Art and science, imaginative and technical, intuitive and considered, strategic and detailed – these elements are at the core of our design, stewardship and deep connectedness to the landscape of the places we work.

Tourism

Our tourism focus is to create authentic visitor experiences that deeply understand, respect and connect to the values of a destination.

Recreation

As active outdoor people, we understand how recreation planning and quality facilities contribute to healthier, happier and more socially active lifestyles. 

Environmental Planning

We advocate to protect functioning ecosystems, repair those that have been injured and tell the story of each place we work so that people can enjoy the benefits of a healthy planet.

Celebrating 200 Years of the Royal Tasmanian Botanical Gardens

The RTBG’s 200th anniversary was an opportunity to celebrate - and what better way to do that than to revitalise the aging infrastructure of one of the Gardens’ most visited features through nuanced design of the highest order.

Kakadu National Park Walking Strategy

For tens of thousands of years, Traditional Owners have traversed the land of Kakadu National Park. In modern times, visitors and bushwalkers have also taken to trekking through the area with good intent but with unsustainable or socially unacceptable consequences. Inspiring Place introduced a tool to ensure respect for the views of the Bininj/Mungguy people while improving the quality, sustainability and profile of the walking opportunities in Kakadu.

Glenorchy Library

As described by a literary character, libraries are loved because “nowhere else in the world felt so safe and homey.” Inspiring Place were engaged to bring that sense of safety and comfort to the ill-conceived and run-down forecourt at the Glenorchy Library, where a range of social issues were making entering the library a testing experience.

“If the earth could talk surely it has been having a long conversation with Inspiring Place.”
