澳大利亚马谷志植物园艺术生态中心由景观设计事务所Guymer Bailey设计完成，是一个集教育、娱乐为一体，自然为主体，原始森林周围的植物园。 　　该中心从社会和文化等方面创造了适合不同群体活动的场所，且都是符合生态的可持续发展规划。阳光海岸区、社区和特殊功能区现在都有了适合其工作、教育宣讲、集会以及艺术展示的环境条件。
　　设计的愿景是要将建筑和景观永久性统一，使其作为一个整体的地标，如建筑内部直接连接外部景观，充分利用周围苍翠的条件，创造更加灵动的活动空间。
　　The landscape displays environmentally sustainable elements for visitor education. For example， overland flow paths simulate natural creek channels by using rocks and gravel surfaces， macrophytic plants and bioretention basins to control and filter storm water runoff.
　　We have collaborated with Maroochy Botanic Garden staff to develop a native garden design that uses plants species endemic to the Sunshine Coast region and immediate bushland context. This flora promotes favourable micro-climatic conditions and ensures sustainable and healthy plant growth without the need for permanent irrigation.
