20 BAYVIEW, NOOSA HEADS QLD

LANDSCAPE DESIGN INTENT

The Viridian Noosa landscape development adjacent to this site focuses on
reinforcement of native species and rehabilitation of the natural landscape
setting. As an extension of this, the landscape soft works around the existing
residence and proposed pool design for 20 Bayview, Noosa Heads has
derived from species that have been selected from the approved Viridian plant
lists. (Refer Approved Plant Schedules).

The aim of the planting design will be in keeping with the overall themes
established in the neighbouring Noosa developments. It is mindful of

the views through to the bay, sight lines from the road plus to and from
neighbouring properties. There is a reliance on large screening shrubs and
detailed rainforest planting at ground level to sympathise with the adjacent
national park, and provide an attractive backdrop for the private recreational
environment.

THE LANDSCAPE DESIGN INTENT AIMS:

{] To use plant species preferred and approved by Noosa Shire Council

{| To use natural materials such as timber and rock in the construction of
landscape treatments

To screen impacts of the built form on the landscape
{] To reinforce the natural rainforest vegetation themes of the site

In conclusion development of a rainforest setting to the new built form of

the proposed site provides an excellent opportunity in keeping with the
established Noosa character. The proposed landscape treatment responds to
the sloping site by providing dense understorey planting around and through
the site, binding the soil and preventing potential erosion, while creating a
lush setting of rainforest shrubs, groundcovers and climbers, combined with a
backdrop of native trees and palms.

Tree and palm species have been selectively used to accentuate the character
of the re-established environment, while framing views down the valley and
providing shade and shelter.
