•   the garages have a substantial setback of 9.61m from the front boundary;

•   the upper floor level pergola protrudes forward of the garage build line with dual architectural posts
    used to help reduce the garages appearance;

•   a lightweight natural timber vertical batten finish is used and softens any impact of the garage doors;

•   the front elevation is asymmetrical and uses a mix of materials to provide an interesting street facing
    elevation and not dominated by garaging;

•    the centrally located driveway allows for the fence and landscaping to screen most of the garage doors;

•    the front fence covers nearly three quarters of the southern garage door and dense landscaping is
     provided in the front of the fence to screen both the fence and garages as shown below in Figure 8;
