Brief

The City of Canada Bay Council had completed The Connection, an award winning community precinct, in 2017.

They wanted to increase the amenity of the area by adding a shade structure over the existing Amphitheatre on the Rhodes Foreshore. The structure needed to be very consistent with the existing design and architecture of the area, and the quality of finish was very important to them.
