According to architect DBI, the building is curvaceous in nature and has been designed as an ‘iconic building’ that features a different design architectural approach for the broader South City Square precinct due to its key location within the development.

The application includes a large public garden called ‘Secret Garden’, designed by Oculus which is proposed for along the eastern boundary of the site.

The proposed Secret Garden includes the following attributes:

  • A total of three, formal playful structures for children to enjoy
  • Stone steppers through the garden that allow for children to journey through the entire garden from start to finish
  • The proposed Secret Garden is designed around sustainability, with recycled materials to form part of the formal play structures
  • To enhance the sensory experience of the Secret Garden, water misters will be integrated with the play elements
  • The garden provides a diversity of plant species that ranges from ground covers, shrubbery and trees
  • No structures are proposed in the tree protection zone that could impact on root structure.

“The Stage 7 works are designed to be an extension of the public realm works established within the previous stages. This integrated design approach ensures that there is a legibility within the public realm, that encourages movement throughout the precinct. The proposed design within this portion of works looks to create an informal garden with a layered and organic quality. The garden also provides more opportunities for self directed play, for both adults and children, looking to escape the hustle and bustle of the precinct.

The Secret Garden is a green, abundant and cool sanctuary within the precinct. Protected by planting along its
periphery, the inner garden is hidden from sight, crossing the threshold, you are transported into a different world with a series of landscape rooms to be explored.

The open lawn, surrounded by lush, tropical planting, provides a passive area for the public to sit and look across the garden. Informal paths, dotted with site salvaged boulders, provide an informal play space for children to conquer, discovering playful structures that they can interact with. Coloured timber logs are laid along the paths and within the garden beds to provide an informal play experience for children and adults.”

    Only two units types actually have a small space for a dining table.
    These units are getting smaller and smaller. What is DBI thinking when putting things like this on the paper???

    Well either the units are small because DBI don’t like people and want to put them in tiny boxes, as some of the public seem to believe, or maybe its more likely that they are just drafting the instructions given to them by profit-hungry developers.
