The Living Ideas platform proudly announces a significant milestone in the evolution of the Twin Cities – a bold new concept design for the iconic Wonga Wetlands, Albury-Wodonga’s ecological treasure.
Driven by a spirit of innovation and courage, this initiative marks the first time that a collaborative, future-oriented design approach has been introduced to reimagine Wonga Wetlands, positioning it not only as a sanctuary of biodiversity but also as a model for sustainable living, cultural connection, and community engagement.
The upgraded concept — the result of months of intensive research, consultation, and vision-sharing — will showcase how wetlands can be harmoniously integrated into urban life, offering spaces for ecological education, recreation, indigenous cultural preservation, and resilient urban ecosystems. The Living Ideas team, in partnership with local government and industry experts, is committed to delivering a design that respects the Wetlands’ natural integrity while boldly exploring new possibilities for the community’s future.
“This is more than a design upgrade,” said a spokesperson for Living Ideas. “It is a brave attempt to redefine the relationship between the city, its environment, and its people. We are honored to contribute to a project that could serve as a model for future city-making, both in Australia and internationally.”
As Albury and Wodonga continue to grow, the revitalized Wonga Wetlands will play a pivotal role in shaping a green, vibrant, and sustainable future for the region. This initiative reflects the Twin Cities’ readiness to lead with vision, innovation, and a deep respect for nature.
Living Ideas looks forward to working closely with the community, council, and broader stakeholders as this exciting journey unfolds.
