The proposed materials are detailed within the plans (TP 2-01 and TP 3-01) and include the following:

   • Feature timber posts,

   • Stained timber cladding,

   • Feature masonry walls – bluestone cladding and textured rendered finish,

   • Glass and timber framed roof details, and

   • Landscape features – boulders and river gravel.

In addition to the above palette, a variety of soft materials will be proposed as part of the landscaping
treatments.

The proposed design enhances the current presentation of the site and provides for a softened appearance.
Through the use of lightweight materials and large openings the proposed design presents a built form which
is lightweight, fine grained, articulated and modern.

A 3D model has been prepared by Frank Macchia. Whilst the model does not reflect the latest revised
architectural drawings (TP 1-00, TP 1-01, TP 2-00 and TP 3-00), it does illustrate the design intent of creating
a light, natural and transparent dining experience.


5. Information Required by Council – Landscaping

The two proposed accessways/ramps to the two ‘pod’ seating areas at the front of the site encroach the
front boundary setback and reduce the potential for landscaping to be provided to soften the appearance
of built form.

Provide amended proposal plans with the two accessways/ramps at the above stated location removed
and landscaping proposed in place.
