At THG, we think that a picture tells a thousand words - and we like to show off our best work. We’ve put together a list of the projects that showcase what we can do, the ones that challenged us and the ones we enjoyed working on.
Situated in the Caboolture district of the idyllic Moreton Bay region north of Brisbane, eco-librium Narangba is a 606-lot integrated urban development that aims to strike a balance between the needs of the community and nature.
The Caboolture Local Government Area (LGA) continues to be one of the fastest growing LGAs in Queensland. The proximity to Brisbane and other regional centres, coupled with the region’s diversity, relaxed lifestyle, superb climate and affordable cost of living is attracting significant numbers of new residents. In 2006, 134,820 people lived in the Caboolture LGA; by 2016, it is estimated the population will grow over 30% to more than 174,000 residents (Department of Infrastructure and Planning, 2007).
Eco-librium has ensured that while the highest quality ecological features of the site have been retained in the Urban Ecological Corridor (UEC), opportunities for residential housing for various levels of the market has been provided.
Communicating the benefits of a project is a tricky skill to master - you might know your project backwards but it’s a good bet that the wider community is in the dark.

THG were approached by Great Southern with the task of demonstrating that a high value timber project in Tully would benefit the sugar cane industry. THG looked at the economic and social impact of conducting forestry operations in North Queensland, in particular the impact on the operations of the local sugar mill.
In order to bring about the level of densification required to make the project viable, THG were charged with demonstrating the value of bringing forward the construction of a railway station ahead of time.
Motorway Business Park is a unique master planned business industry estate designed to provide direct heavy vehicle access via the Logan Motorway Interchange. THG’s planning expertise and tenacity paved the way for Motorway Business Park, whose versatility, shown through design efficiency, access and proximity to key logistics hubs sets a new benchmark in industry master-planned estates.
“We want to set the standard for the region” was the brief given to THG when creating the residential development to be known as ‘The Ridge Urban Village’.
Creating an urban community within unique environmental constraints was the challenge facing THG when we were approached to offer strategic planning advice to Intrapac on the New Beith project. Representing a major growth area that had been recently added to the Urban Footprint, this residential development was characterised by endangered vegetation, a future railway corridor and topographical feature ‘Round Mountain’ right in the middle of the development.
