The scheme lends a consistency and unification to the urban fabric whilst aspiring to high levels of energy efficiency. It is a design that has multiple aims and objectives which dovetail inextricably with those of the landscape design. Pedestrian safety, comfort and needs have been the driving factors behind the design decisions. The Cosmopolis and LED scheme sets a benchmark in environmental performance for exterior lighting in Australia. The unprecedented scale of this installation in the southern hemisphere delivers significant environmental benefits and together with the custom feature lighting to the central median contributes to the revitalisation of a major boulevard exemplifying design excellence and renewing a sense of civic pride for the community of Dandenong.
