The subject site is located 10km east of Brisbane CDB, 2 kilometres from the Gateway Motorway, 800 metres (10 minute walk) to the Cleveland Train line and 200-400 metres (2.5-5 minute walk) to neighbourhood shopping centre, restaurants and local bus route. The proposed design responds to the Multiple Dwelling Code by providing a mixture of housing choice within the Murarrie surrounding area.
The buildings have been designed to create variety, visual interest through the manipulation of a simple palette of forms, colours and materials. The development has a cohesive architectural expression which is a product of the contrasting white and dark elements with the use of screens, overhangs and fins to help articulate the forms.
