About the project
For this project, we are working with Ngaliwurru-Wuli Aboriginal Corporation (NWAC) in Timber Creek (traditionally known as Makalamayi, on the lands of Ngaliwurru and Nungali people) in the Northern Territory.
The project is to provide a facility for corporation staff at the site of the tourist park, including a workshop, store room, accessible bathroom and laundry.
Our role
NWAC had already secured funding for this project when it brought Metio in to manage the detailed design documentation and coordinate the build.
