A Creative Welcome: New Road Artwork at Élan

24 September 2025

Future residents and visitors to Élan will now be greeted by a striking new artwork as they arrive at the community. The installation forms part of the arrival sequence along the main entry road, creating a distinctive sense of place as you approach the masterplanned community.

The design is an abstract interpretation of the Grass Tree (Xanthorrhoea johnsonii), a native species found throughout the local area and present on site. Developed by CUSP landscape architects, the pattern draws inspiration from the natural environment, while the sandstone tones reflect the materials that will feature prominently across Élan’s parklands.

Installation was expertly delivered by Brick N Pave using StreetBond, a specialist process where a coloured, textured coating is permanently applied to the road surface. This innovative method ensures durability while allowing for vibrant, detailed designs.

The artwork will receive a final touch-up once the majority of homes in the community are complete, ensuring it remains a fresh and welcoming feature for years to come.

Élan’s arrival artwork is more than just decoration—it is a symbol of connection to the local landscape and a creative marker of the community’s unique character.
