这是由JMD design公司设计的澳大利亚帕丁顿水库花园。设计师们将废弃的帕丁顿水库改造为一个开放的城市公园。花园的设计旨在改变因为场地及地下建筑废弃造成的不适宜的人居环境。曾经的废墟经过复兴，变得迷人而浪漫。戏剧性的空间和历史悠久的残垣，新颖的设计，令人流连往返。
一个下沉式花园占据了水库西部两室。人迹罕至的一边栽植了色彩丰富且极具质感植物，让人联想到维多利亚时代的种植。另一边则在草坪上孤植一些树木。在这两个花园的中心，有一块残留的拱形屋顶，屋顶阴影下的池塘反射着花园的一切美景。

The project converted a disused 19th Century reservoir into a public garden in an inner city suburb of Sydney. The project sought to subtly foster and maintain the strange atmosphere found in the subterranean structure. An atmosphere that arose from the simple fact that the structure was never intended for human occupation, rather its logic reflects the now absent mass of water whose ebb and flow compressed any occupiable volume between the dark surface of the water and the vaulted brick and iron ceiling.
A sunken garden occupies the two western chambers of the reservoir. One inaccessible planted with a palette of highly textured plants reminiscent of a Victorian era planting, the other slightly raised and planted with a single gum tree in a lawn. At the centre of these two gardens, under a remnant piece of vaulted roof, a dark pond reflects all.
On the roof of the western chamber a lawn is cut by a path whose alignment and materiality reflects the geometry of the vaults below, as though the original fabric of the reservoir has seeped upwards and stained the surface of the new park.
