Custom play comes to Bankside Estate

It’s been a big few weeks for the FORGE team in Victoria with site works now complete for this striking new ‘greenhouse’ inspired play structure at Bankside Estate in Rowville.

Located 35 minutes south-east of Melbourne, the fully custom adventure playground is the first of several new structures FORGE will be delivering for Pask Group in the heart of Bankside, including a series of shade shelters and other community amenities.

Adjacent to the Corhanwarrabul Creek wetlands, each of the structures is designed to complement the surrounding landscape while providing spaces for play, relaxation and everyday use within the 68-hectare master-planned community.

FORGE was engaged following a competitive tender to develop, detail and ultimately deliver an original concept created by landscape architects Tract.

A major creative and technical undertaking, the project called for a robust concept iteration process that saw FORGE work closely with the design team at Tract to optimise buildability and play value.

Meticulous design detailing, engineering and testing then followed ensuring a safe and seamless construction phase delivered under lead contractor ULS Group.

The new park is set to open to Bankside Estate families in late 2026.

Tamworth Skywalk is officially open! 🎉

It was such a thrill to see the Tamworth Skywalk officially open to the public on Saturday, with the community turning out in full force to be among the first to experience Tamworth’s newest outdoor attraction.

Stretching 1.5km through Victoria Park and up to the iconic Oxley Scenic Lookout, the Skywalk creates a whole new way to explore the landscape and take in the incredible views across Tamworth.

For FORGE, seeing people walking, exploring and enjoying the Skywalk for the very first time was a great moment for the entire project team.

As principal contractor, we’ve been involved from the early stages through to final delivery, bringing together elevated boardwalks, pedestrian bridges, viewing decks and the complex infrastructure needed to make this landmark project a reality.

It’s been a huge team effort, delivered alongside Tamworth Regional Council and an incredible network of local subcontractors, suppliers and businesses.

More than a new way to experience Tamworth’s landscape, the Skywalk adds another reason for visitors to explore the city, stay a little longer and discover more of what the region has to offer, supporting local businesses and contributing to the region’s visitor economy.

The Tamworth Skywalk is now open and ready to explore. Thank you for having us!

We’re thrilled to announce that FORGE has been engaged to deliver a showpiece community play experience at Society 1056 in Fraser Rise, a fast-growing residential community near Caroline Springs on Melbourne’s western fringe.

Inspired by the form of a sprawling banyan tree, the custom design vision is called ‘Into the Woods’ and was created by long-time FORGE collaborators Spiire for YourLand Developments.

Packed with moments of play for children of all ages and abilities, the eye-catching design has been carefully created to deliver an immersive play experience while maintaining the natural look and feel of a living tree, with roots and branches jutting out from the main ‘trunk’.

“Working closely with Spiire, our role was to take their creative vision for the ‘Into The Woods’ playspace and develop it into something that could be built and brought to life. The banyan tree concept, with its sprawling limbs and hanging roots, created some really unique opportunities to integrate play throughout the design, while staying true to Spiire’s original design intent.”
- Joel Watson, FORGE Client Relations Leader

FORGE is currently leading the design detailing and pre-construction stages alongside Spiire and YourLand to bring this park to life for the Society 1056 community.

Site works are set to begin later in 2026. Watch this space for updates.

High density, high complexity, high expectations

One of Sydney’s most talked about new playgrounds, Gunyama Park (Stage 2) has been an instant hit with local families and FORGE was delighted to play a large role in making it happen.

FORGE was contracted under Regal Innovations to detail, manufacture and deliver the two winding ‘tunnel’ play structures for the City of Sydney on former industrial land at Zetland, just 3km from the Sydney CBD.

Faced with significant creative and logistical complexity, FORGE collaborated closely with the design team at PLACE Design Group to bring their vision for the play structures brilliantly to life, extracting maximum community value from what was a tightly constrained brownfield site.

Delivered within a high-density urban community with limited site access and surrounded by high-rise construction, the brief called for proven methodology and precision planning to deliver the 37-metre junior and 57-metre elevated senior play tunnels on brief and on budget.

“Working with FORGE was a great collaborative process,” said Liam Isaksen, Senior Associate at PLACE Design Group. “Regular meetings with Council to workshop the design made it easy to give real-time ideas and comments to evolve the design further.”

Virtual becomes reality | Harnessing the power of VR in design

It wasn’t that long ago the concept of ‘virtual reality’ was considered largely a gimmick.

Not any more. The technology is evolving fast and it’s increasingly being used to transform the way community structures are designed around the world, including right here at FORGE.

In our latest insight article, we explore how our design team have integrated VR into our design process to deliver better real-world outcomes for our clients on custom outdoor projects across Australia.

Perhaps it could do the same for your next project?

Connecting with Country in Western Sydney

Some projects run far deeper than just their aesthetic beauty.

There’s no better example than the series of sculptural ‘Eucalypt Leaf’ shade canopies delivered by FORGE for Transport for NSW along the shared user path of Sydney’s new M12 Motorway.

Designed by local artists, FORGE was appointed to detail, manufacture and install the striking new community structures in collaboration with Indigenous design/strategy agency Balarinji and M12 lead contractor CPB Georgiou.

Highlighting the diverse seasons of Western Sydney, Dharug Country, the eucalypt canopies range from 9.9 metres to 13.6 metres in height and form part of wider immersive cultural experience delivered through a family of artwork installations and outdoor structures along the M12.

Large in scale and highly intricate in design, the unique canopy forms challenged FORGE to transform a complex artistic concept into an outstanding built outcome.

Meticulously finished with lasercut powdercoated aluminium panels, the bespoke twisting forms saw FORGE develop a bespoke prototyping method, while the mild steel structural framing was refined with the extensive use of parametric modelling.

Now open to cyclists, pedestrians and joggers, the canopies also feature integrated LED lighting allowing these remarkable structures to be seen and enjoyed day and night.

Whimsical Whelk Shells | Sir Joseph Banks Park, Botany Bay

When Bayside Council commissioned an all-new $2.75 million destination play space for Sir Joseph Banks Park in southern Sydney, they had a design vision they loved.

The hero element was a soaring 8.7-metre play tower inspired by the ‘whelk’ shells found in nearby Botany Bay, based on an original concept by Jeavons Landscape Architecture.

However—as is often the case with bespoke and large-scale play structures—achieving it in the real world was far from straightforward.

To make it happen, FORGE (formerly Fleetwood Urban) was contracted by Council to meticulously refine and detail the centrepiece tower—a process that saw our design team explore numerous options in collaboration with Jeavons, before identifying the most effective way to safely achieve their design in full accordance with AS 4685.

Once the design was approved by Council, construction was then novated under the principal contractor, Glascott Landscape & Civil.

The result was a whimsical ‘one of a kind’ play experience that’s as structurally sound as it is inspiring—and, unsurprisingly, hugely popular with local families. The multilevel tower invites exploration for all abilities: ground-level rope climbs offer an energetic start, the middle level is designed for inclusive wheelchair access, and the top platform rewards the most adventurous kids with a thrilling 5.5-metre tube slide back to earth.
