Brookhaven Design Guidelines

Design Guidelines

VERSION

7

Design Approval Process This document is to be used as a guide for the achievement of the Brookhaven project vision. Design innovation over and above the requirements outlined within this document is encouraged, and we welcome the opportunity to discuss how design innovation can correlate to quality housing and living outcomes.

In order to construct your home, you must apply and have an application package approved by the Design Review Committee (DRC). Design Approval by the DRC does not constitute a building approval or compliance with building regulations. Upon obtaining Design Approval from the DRC, a building permit must be obtained from the local Council or a private Building Certifier before construction can commence.

THE PROCESS The DRC will endeavour to assess proposals in the shortest possible time, generally within ten business days of receiving all required information for the application. Approved plans will be stamped approved, and returned to the applicant or their agent. The progress of the home will be monitored by the DRC to ensure that it conforms to the approved design.

A message from Brookhaven Our vision for Brookhaven is to be a place where families thrive. This vision underpins the master planning and design work that goes in to making Brookhaven somewhere people will want to live in, both today and in the future.

A master planned community like Brookhaven brings together and seamlessly coordinates a number of different factors or ingredients to make it successful. Some of these include: w Working with the wonderful natural landscape – to enhance and feature this as part of all residents’ experience of living at Brookhaven. This includes retaining mature trees wherever we can and making water way and wild life corridors accessible through multi-use trails. w Working in partnership with Council and other community providers to deliver community parks and activities that provide health, wellbeing and learning opportunities.

This work is supported by a dedicated Community Development Manager. w Ensuring that a consistent and enjoyable environment for all is created, maintained and enhanced.

This last point is made possible through the provision of the Brookhaven Design Guidelines and a design approval process for all homes designed and built in Brookhaven. The Design Guidelines encourage a cohesive streetscape while promoting a variety in house design that

contributes to creating a neighbourhood that is visually interesting, environmentally conscious and is of a consistent high quality.

There are a number of benefits to having these Brookhaven Design Guidelines in place. w They provide certainty to all future residents and property owners about the standard of housing and environment that is being created. w They will assist in ensuring your home is a comfortable, healthy and environmentally conscious – through simple measures like choosing a different roof colour. w They result in everyone who owns a property in Brookhaven being responsible for and playing a role in ensuring Brookhaven achieves a strong neighbourhood character.

The Brookhaven Design Guidelines form part of the sale contract for land at Brookhaven and are enforceable through this contract. The obligations in the Design Guidelines also pass on to future owners – ensuring a consistent standard is maintained.

We believe these Design Guidelines are an important and essential part of making Brookhaven a success – today and in the future.

And that this will ultimately contribute to protecting and enhancing values and ensuring Brookhaven is a place where families can thrive.

USEFUL INFORMATION We encourage you to look at http://www.yourhome.gov.au/ for more useful information on building a sustainable home that will save you money and is good for the environment.

DRAINAGE Stormwater run-off must be collected or discharged to the kerb adaptor via the installation of agi pipes and pits in both rear and side yards. Grading of the landscape must minimise stormwater runoff into neighbouring properties.

Where applicable, developer installed retaining wall drainage must be connected by the builder to the local stormwater system discharging to the kerb adaptor.

OVERHANGS

Provide shelter to outdoor spaces and generous eaves for diffused light, reduced glare and protection from driving rain.

Position trees with large canopies to provide shade in summer and reduce glare from surrounding environment. Ensure tree locations and species optimise summer breezes.

Streetscape canopy to be integrated into the front landscape to ‘blur’ the distinction between private and public.

Any trellises to the front are to be maximum 1.2m high transparent coloured metal complimented by stained hardwoord timber posts with a minimum size of 100mm x 100mm.

Optimise cross ventilation and natural light to keep the house cool and dry, to moderate humidity.

DEFINITIONS

RECOMMENDED ROOF COLOURS

Articulation - The recess and/or projection of a wall.

The roof colours below have been chosen for their ability to reflect up to 70 per cent of summer heat gain. Light coloured COLORBOND® sheeting or roof tiles keep cooler than darker colours. This cooler temperature can mean reduced energy costs for cooling a home or building. These are recommendations only. Design is approval is not contingent on the use of one of the colours below.

Building Line – The front wall line of the house.

Building Height – The vertical distance between the natural ground level and the peak of the roof of the dwelling (not including antennae, or other Ancillary items).

DRC – Design Review Committee.

(The lowest Solar Absorbance value in the COLORBOND steel range)

Eave Line – The edge of the roof or parapet.

Façade – Face of the building - Façade Area is calculated as a square meter measure of the entire vertical surface of the house visible from the Street or Public Area.

Glazing - Any fixed or opening glass panel.

Habitable Room – A room used for living activities, e.g. a family room, living room, meals or bedrooms.

Private Open Space – The external open areas around the dwelling that are intended exclusively for recreational purpose of the residents’.

Setback – The minimum distance between the wall and the property boundary line.

Street Frontage – The front boundary of a lot that fronts the road – on a corner lot the primary street frontage is deemed the shorter side.
