CONCEPTUAL HERITAGE PROJECT

COMMERICAL IN CONFIDENCE

2023

To develop a concept to support a heritage proposal seeking funding for a WWII commemoration dedicated to the Z Special Unit emphasizing the preservation of historical significance, engaging storytelling, and creating a lasting tribute to honor the brave individuals who served during World War II.

  • Paying homage to the Z special unit LMS Base and Catalina Base that operated in Darwin Harbour during WWII, a memorial boardwalk, amenities and landscaped covered picnic areas were designed to honour the members of the veterans who had served on this site.


  • In an area overgrown with mangroves and little visual reference to the site's historic significance, the design featured interpretive signage dotted along the boardwalk which leads out to a view overlooking the sunken LMS ramp.


  • It was envisioned that this area could encourage the establishment of local food trucks which would cater for businesses running out of East Arm.
