Gateway to the Last Stand
The Rural City of Wangaratta engaged CS to design a cultural heritage centre to bring the site and story of Ned Kelly’s last stand to life.
The brief was to create a circular lookout platform. We started with Ned Kelly's iconic helmet, twisting the form to create a series of helices.
