In the early 1994, the Australian government puts forward the conception of"Creative Nation", which includes the development of culture industry into national development policies and actively promotes the development of their creative industries. In this backdrop of development, Brisbane positively develops its local creative industries, creates the worlds first creative Industries Institute, which is specialize designed to foster creative talents and to research in the creative industry. Finally, it becomes the world center of creative industry relying on Australian Queensland University of Technology, establishes the first industrial park as innovative and creative industry development base, which makes the development of creative industries in Brisbane becomes more representative. With the development of the creative industries in Brisbane, an agglomeration trend in geographical space gradually emerged just as the general rules manifested in the industry agglomeration. However, because of the uniqueness of the creative industries as well as the urban structure of Brisbane, its creative Industries present a unique characteristic which we particularly called "hot spots". The formation of the"hot spot"is under the coefficient of both the general rule and its uniqueness in creative industrial agglomeration. Thus, base on these hot spots as well as other hot spots in some similar administrative areas which emphasize relevance among different industrial categories,"the Brisbane Creative Industries corridor" gradually shaped. The distribution of these hot spots and corridors implicate some essential traits of the creative industry agglomeration in Brisbane, such as surrounding agglomeration which is generally around the city center, discrete distribution in core area of the city, the living space disperse of the creative class and the appearance of university cluster. These structures are the combination of the general rule and the uniqueness of creative industrial agglomeration in Brisbane. The development of creative industries in Brisbane which is largely benefit from the positive expedition of a "university-industry-government" mode, creatively realized a co-evolutive development pattern consisted of the localization of organization, technique and institution. Then one step further, Brisbane created its own way of development, which is worth using for reference to other regions.The occurrence of Brisbane flood happened in early 2011 had a significant impact on all aspects of the city. Obviously, the post-disaster reconstruction has also become the central point of our focuses. Take example by the great achievement of the development in design creative industry after Hanshin Earthquake in Japan, you can predict the positive effect of the development of creative industries in Brisbane on the post-disaster reconstruction in this area, which is mainly reflected in the initial period of post-disaster reconstruction stage and the long-term development potential aspect. This is manifested in relatively low consumption; high improve of urban competitiveness, rapid recovery of production in relieving employment and social pressures and optimization of the old spatial order of the cities.
