This mural wraps the building in a lively, flowing scene inspired by Australian native birdlife. Two black cockatoos dominate the composition – their scalloped feathers rendered in bold black and white, with soft yellow ear patches and gentle pink accents around the eyes and beaks. One cockatoo leans into a banksia bloom, delicately feeding, while another perches calmly nearby, creating a sense of companionship and quiet attentiveness.
Sweeping, ribbon-like shapes in warm reds, oranges and purples curl through the background, weaving the birds into the space and giving the wall a feeling of movement and rhythm. Cool blues and soft pastels balance the warmth, while leafy greens and native flora anchor the scene in nature.
The overall effect is both playful and reverent – celebrating local wildlife with strong graphic lines, rich colour, and a sense of flow that draws the eye across the entire façade. It transforms the building into a vibrant, welcoming landmark that feels connected to place, nature, and community.
