“The proposed development has been designed to represent a series of row house developments consistent with the “missing middle” design sought by Shaping SEQ. The design as a whole has been stepped with the slope of the land and will provide a great deal of articulation through the introduction of recesses within the façade and the variety of building materials utilised,” the planners at Steffan Town Planning said.
