The five pelicans have landed at Jindee

by

A unique public art installation has arrived at the Estate Development Company (EDC) owned Jindee estate – five pelicans perched on timber sourced from the old Bunbury wharf.

EDC Chair, Fiona Roche said that the pelicans are about more than visual appeal and are a reflection of the strong connection we have with our coastline in Western Australia.

“Public art has an important role in enriching communities – not only is it to be enjoyed by people of all ages, but it is about expressing a shared sentiment and sparking imagination or memories,” Ms Roche said.

“Pelicans are a natural fit for our new beachside community as they link back to the nostalgia of growing up around Perth and enjoying our beautiful beaches.”

The five pelican sculptures have been installed at the square-about intersection of Oceania and Midsummer Ave upon entry to the Jindee estate in the northern suburb of Jindalee.

Designer and creator Rick Grigsby said that pelicans feature folded origami-style plates and 30 metres of welds.

Together with his brother Ben, Rick designed, planned, sourced materials and constructed each of the five different pelican designs, reminiscent of their own childhood.

“In Western Australia, pelicans are a common sight and one that evokes strong memories associated with the lifestyle we are so lucky to enjoy here,” Rick said.

“As kids Rick and I grew up along the northern beaches – fishing, diving and catching crays, and the pelicans were always there and a a part of these experiences,” Rick said.

Innovative new Jindee building sets benchmark in sales office design

by

Future residents, community members and stakeholders this weekend celebrated the official opening of the Jindee land sales office, an innovative and sustainable design unlike standard sales office buildings.

The new land sales office is located on the corner of Marmion Avenue and Oceania Avenue in the northern suburb of Jindalee and presents as an open pavilion, featuring floor to ceiling glass and showcasing 180 degree views of the ocean-side location.

Following its use as a lands sales office, the state of the art building will be relocated to the coast in the future and repurposed as a community facility.

Fiona Roche, Executive Chair of Estates Development Company (EDC) developer of the Jindee estate said that the building raises the bar on sales centre design through high quality architectural response, innovative construction techniques and sustainability measures.

“The unique design of the land sales office, like the Jindee estate as a whole, is premised on timeless design principles and a close relationship between the urban and natural environment, respecting the landforms and coastal character of the site,” Ms Roche said.

“It has been constructed to integrate seamlessly with its surrounds – the two-storey structure has an inner glass structure overlaid by a timber-clad exterior and features a large roof terrace with panoramic views.”

Ms Roche said that sustainable development and environmental performance were key considerations in the building design, which has resulted in a structure that can be disassembled and relocated as required.

“The land sales building is ideal for a facility that will service the Jindee community well in the future and, due to its modular design, it can be simply lifted up and reinstalled elsewhere on site,” Ms Roche said.

“The design also incorporates sustainable elements throughout including solar passive design features to reduce energy needs, maximise the use of natural light and support cross-ventilation.

The new Jindee land sales office

Community invited to be part of Jindee history

by

Residents and visitors to the Jindee estate’s land sales office opening on Saturday and Sunday 4 – 5 August will not only learn more about the estate but will be able to watch a unique live artwork come to life and contribute to it themselves.

Award winning Noongar artist Bradley Kickett is creating a live painting of the Jindee coast and land in Jindalee based on his aerial photography of the site, painting from the new sales office on site.

Fiona Roche, Executive Chair of Estates Development Company (EDC) developer of the Jindee estate said that the artwork has been commissioned to celebrate an important milestone for the estate and is an opportunity for community members to be a part of a piece of history.

“We are excited to invite people to join us as we open the doors to our new sales office – a significant moment as the Jindee vision really begins taking shape on site,” Ms Roche said.

“The state of the art design of our new sales office reflects this broader vision for Jindee, integrating seamlessly with the natural environment – the two-storey structure has an inner glass structure overlaid by a timber-clad exterior and features a large roof terrace.”

“Bradley’s style of painting is perfect to capture Jindee as he celebrates the ocean and natural landforms in his art, which also reflects the Jindee vision.”

Bradley said that, through all of his art pieces, he sets out to capture the flow and shapes of the earth as seen in an aerial view.

“The painting is inspired by the natural coastline and dunes at Jindee as seen from the air and the process for this art piece allows visitors to add their mark on the canvas,” Bradley said.

The Jindee estate and sales office is located on the corner of Marmion Avenue and Oceania Avenue, Jindalee, featuring floor to ceiling glass to showcase 180 degree views of the oceanside estate.

Following its use as a lands sales office, the building will be relocated to the coast in the future and repurposed to as a community facility.

Internationally designed Jindee development approved

by

A landmark estate in Perth’s northern corridor, which will work with the natural landforms of the coastal setting rather than against it, is set to go ahead following formal WA Planning Commission (WAPC) approval of the local structure plan.

The beachfront development by the Estates Development Company (EDC) located at Jindalee in Perth’s north, has created history as the first of its kind and the approval followed 12 years of effort by EDC, the WAPC and the City of Wanneroo.

Executive Chair of EDC, Fiona Roche said Jindee is a true waterfront development, maintaining two sand dunes that run perpendicular to the coast creating a natural amphitheatre and makes the most of its limestone outcrops.

The rock formations have allowed the development area to move closer to the shore as they address  the traditional 100-year erosion line that usually sets developments 200m back from the water.

“It seeks to be a walking environment where it is a pleasure to stroll through the natural environments, the village and the diverse residential areas all within the square kilometre that is Jindee,” she said.

“There will be a natural living environment with large lots immersed in the natural environment on the ridgelines where roads will wind over the dunes and housing will nestle into hillsides with uninterrupted views over the coast.

“A more urban environment will be created in the amphitheatre flanked by the ridgelines. Homes will engage with the street and create an atmosphere more like the residential areas of Fremantle, Cottesloe and Subiaco.”

EDC will now complete Detailed Area Plans and subdivision applications for the first stages, which are expected to be released off-the-plan late next year.

When complete, Jindee will be home to just under 2000 residents.
