Aussie Outdoor Design going from strength-to-strength
Building on the success of the first installations in metropolitan Sydney, Aussie Outdoor Design continues to go from strengthto-strength, thanks to its fully-integrated outdoor sports, fitness and recreation solutions. Combining the latest in multi-sport courts, outdoor surfacing technology and state-ofthe-art outdoor gym equipment, these fullyintegrated outdoor facilities are proving to be a massive hit with councils, developers and residents alike. Jason Day, Business Manager with Aussie Outdoor Design, explained: "Now we have a couple of these facilities installed and operational, councils and developers are able to come and see how they look and function in a 'real world' environment." "Most importantly, they're also getting to see just how popular these facilities are with the public. From young children and school kids, through to families and seniors, these new facilities are attracting people of all ages and abilities," Jason added. "They really 22

have become a centre of activity for the community." With an ever-increasing emphasis being placed on participation in healthy outdoor activities, many councils and developers are looking for recreation solutions that combine fun and exercise in a safe, inclusive environment. Hardly surprisingly then, that these new outdoor facilities are proving to be so popular - although it's fair to say the response has been bigger than expected! "To be honest, we're staggered by the response to these new facilities," Jason Day said. "While we felt certain that we were 'on a winner' in terms of having a world-class outdoor recreation and fitness solution that could meet the needs of councils, property developers and schools, the response to the new facilities has surpassed even our highest expectations." "In fact, we've already started work on two new installations in NSW and the ACT and we're working with a number of other councils on developing specific plans and designs to meet their needs," he added.
Not surprisingly, the company's 'bespoke' approach to design and delivery is also proving extremely popular. Rather than trying to deliver a 'one size fits all solution' the Aussie Outdoor Design team design and develop specific facilities to meet their clients' needs. "By designing each installation on a case-by-case basis, our clients are able to select individual components - including equipment, shade structures, sports court design, flooring solutions and landscaping - to suit the location. This not only enables them to take into account the geographic constraints of the site, but also to design for demographics, cultural considerations, other nearby facilities and expected levels of patronage," Jason Day concluded.
