Fremantle City Plan: What if?

An event as part of the Fremantle City Plan, hosted by the City of Fremantle City Design Team.

“What If” is a special component of the City Plan that brings together visionary work from architects, designers and researchers – mostly based in Walyalup Fremantle or with a connection to the place. This event will showcase their contributions and invite public conversation around future directions Fremantle could take in the years ahead.

Featured Presentations

The evening will feature presentations from the creators of the “What If” proposals featured in the City Plan:

• Kerry Hill Architects, with Daniel Jan Martin and Sandra Harben, reimagining Fremantle’s relationship with the Derbal Yerrigan Bilya.

• Space Agency Architects, proposing a Community Land Trust housing model on underutilised land along the train corridor.

• Simon Pendal Architects with Robyn Collard, proposal for Fremantle Malls – a redevelopment concept that reclaims space for Country at a significant scale.

• With Architects, envisioning a new community place within Fremantle Park, inspired by the mix and vitality of the West End.

• Josh Byrne & Associates with Bill Grace, speculating on a radical transformation of Fremantle by 2125 – letting the water in to rethink how the city lives with a changing coastline.

• Finding Infinity, adapting their New Normal framework to Fremantle – a set of 12 strategies for shifting toward urban self-sufficiency.

This event is an opportunity to engage with the City Plan and the creative provocations that challenge how we think about urban life, place, and possibility in Fremantle.
