Gold Coast Cultural Precinct

Gold Coast is a city determined by a significant civic space - the beach - which has singularly informed the culture and making of it as a place. The city's beach culture is free spirited, physical, youthful, energetic, playful and social. It engages with outdoors, the estuaries, the hinterland, and the climate. Planned along the beach, the Gold Coast is linear by nature, characterized by edges and thresholds, permeable and porous to promote accessibility between its parts.
