Prahran Square

We collaborated with a beloved local council to create an inviting web experience for an iconic outdoor community space.

Background

A dynamic and inviting public space, Prahran Square is a community hub that engages with the public in meaningful ways. From a chill spot to settle for lunch, to free outdoor events and a relocated underground carpark, Prahran Square has a physical presence like no other.

Stonnington Council came to us in hopes of capturing this presence in the digital realm, with sufficient content management for distributing public events and hosting venue information.

We delivered an affordable yet visually powerful website through our Eventful solution. With Umbraco as the CMS, Eventful provides a solid foundation for flexible and meaningful web content with a proven user experience.
