OCULUS is a design studio that creates projects in the
public domain, which aspire to be challenging,
contemporary and multi-dimensional whilst encouraging
different levels of engagement with the site and the
people that occupy it. The studio has a commitment to
projects that bolster social interaction, are based on
achieving public amenity and ecological sustainability
and contribute to the public life of cities and places.
OCULUS maintains a global interlinked practice with
studios in Sydney, Melbourne, and Washington DC, and
has successfully designed and managed several
projects in these three centres as well as places as
diverse as New Zealand, Perth, Singapore, Shanghai,
Beijing and beyond.
OCULUS sees the design of public space as a vehicle
to engage people with their neighbourhood and city;
parks and civic spaces play an important role in
restoring community pride and a sense of place.
