Federation Square is located in the heart of Melbourne, with an area of 3.2 hectares and it has two main spaces: the open area (St Paul's Court) and the covering part (Atrium), built on top of a raised concrete deck above busy railway lines. Located at the intersection area between Flinders Street and Swanston Street / St Kilda Road in Melbourne's central business district, next to a busy railway station. The area is the first area of the city of Melbourne, and she created on the initiative of the Melbourne City Council. Its construction was completed by 1968. After redevelopment in the 1990s, so it was unable to address the serious shortcomings in its design and in this decade, the first plans for the construction of new areas were taken Victoria state government.
Architectural competition was declared premier Geoff Kenneth in 1997 and has 177 entries from around the world were received. The aim of the contest was a mix of Flinders Street to the river Yarra and to strengthen and complement the neighboring buildings, including St Paul's Cathedral and Flinders Street Station. Several projects have entered the work of architects Denton Corker Marshall and Ashton Raggatt McDougall were exhibited to the public. The winner, however, was declared in 1997 by a consortium of steel Lab Architecture Studio, under the direction of Donald Bates and Peter Davidson of London, Karres en Brands landscape architects Sylvia Karres and Bart and local architect Bates Smart. The original design, which was to cost 110 and $ 128 million included several five-storey "fragments", two of which were available on the northwest edge of the area. These two structures were designed to provide a frame of St Paul's Cathedral from the area of St. Paul's Court, highlighting its size in this perspective. A series of interconnected streets and stairs connect Flinders Street to the River Yarra. Outdoor area equipped with a large screen for viewing for public events. These elements have been widely supported by the design community and contributed to the implementation of the design criteria and at the same time covers the needs of the growing popularity of the Melbourne streets. However, Design Lab has also been the source of much controversy and resentment among the defenders of cultural heritage, primarily because of the location of buildings "fragments".

Архитектурный конкурс был был объявлен премьером Джеффом Кеннетом в 1997 году и на него было получено 177 заявок со всего мира. Задачей конкурса было соединение улицы Флиндерс с рекой Ярра и укрепление и дополнение соседних зданий, включая Собор Святого Павла и вокзал Флиндерс-стрит. Несколько проектов которые вошли работы архитекторов Denton Corker Маршалл и Эштона Raggatt МакДугалл были выставлены для публики. Победитель, однако, был объявлен в 1997 году ими стали консорциум Lab Architecture Studio, под руководством Дональда Бейтса и Питера Дэвидсона из Лондона, Karres эн Brands ландшафтные архитекторы Сильвии Karres и Барт и местный архитектор Бейтс Смарт. Оригинальный дизайн, который был обошелся в 110 и $ 128 млн включал в себя несколько пятиэтажных "осколков", два из которых свободно стояли на северо-западном краю участка. Эти две структуры были призваны обеспечить обрамление собора Святого Павла от площади суда Святого Павла, подчеркивая его размер в подобной перспективе. Серия взаимосвязанных улочек и лестниц соединит Флиндерс-стрит с рекой Ярра. Открытая площадь снабжена большим экраном для просмотра для публичных мероприятий. Эти элементы были широко поддержаны дизайнерским сообществом и способствовали выполнению проектных критериев и в тоже время охватывает потребности растущей популярности улочек Мельбурна. Тем не менее, Design Lab также был источником большого противоречия и негодования среди защитников культурного наследия, в первую очередь из-за расположения зданий "осколков".
Площадь была офицтально открыта 26 октября 2002 года. В отличие от многих австралийских достопримечательностей, га открытии не присутствовала Елизавета II, она посетила Площадь Федерации в октябре 2011 года.
