Brisbane Architecture practice BVN made a workplace on the street as their contribution to Brisbane’s PARK(ing) Day on Friday 18 September 2015. A‘setting’ to extend public awareness of the capacity for public spaces to support both civic and business activity.

Instead of cars parked outside 12 Creek Street, there was an operational working space, with wi-fi connections, presentation screens and a flow of coffee to welcome anyone who wants to experience street side working.

PARK(ing) Day started in 2005 in San Francisco when a single car parking space was converted into a temporary park by art and design studio Rebar. Since then PARK(ing) Day has become an annual worldwide event where teams of creative people transform on-street car parking spots into temporary public parks and other spaces for people to enjoy for the day.
