Project Vision Statement
SkyRidge is a transformative masterplan development that will establish up to 3,500 dwellings and a township activity centre to build a healthy new community around the lifestyle that has made the Gold Coast one of Australia’s most desirable places to live. Occupying 342 hectares of central Gold Coast land, SkyRidge is where the hinterland, the city and the coast meet. The masterplanned community builds on the land’s magnificent views and unique physical attributes, establishing an ecological corridor that weaves the length of the site, accentuating its hills and rehabilitating natural waterways. An abundance of designed open spaces and landscaped parklands will connect the community through walking, running and cycling trails, dog parks and nature play – promoting an active and healthy lifestyle for everyone. The eastern end of the project will be rich in amenity, with provision for a local centre-scale retail village centre, school, child care, parks, boutique commercial spaces, play areas and public art. Together, these elements will contribute to the creation of a healthy new neighbourhood, known for its social vibrancy and strong sense of place. As it evolves, SkyRidge will bring more than a new housing choice to the market. It will also bring old Gold Coast qualities to a new and innovative place by providing a casual and easy lifestyle, connecting people to nature and to each other to form a genuine community for both now and into the future.

These Design Guidelines have been developed as an integral part of the Master Planning process, which means your home forms an important part of the evolving character of SkyRidge.
INTRODUCTION Quality homes will complete the vision and ensure SkyRidge will be an iconic place within the broader Gold Coast area. We encourage Owners, their Architects/Designers, and builders to explore the latest technology, materials and building techniques to consider capturing the prevailing breezes by maximising private open space opportunities.
These Design Guidelines are a minimum set of standards that must be complied with, however innovation and architectural excellence is encouraged, and we recognise the importance of individuality. Designs that do not comply with all aspects of the Design Guidelines may be considered where the design is considered to be of appropriate Architectural Merit and contributing to the overall character and value of the Community.
Queensland has a unique architectural character suited to our climate. Your home and the layout on your allotment will vary significantly depending on the orientation.
Design Elements & Character
It is critical that you address the sub-tropical climate by maximising the passive cooling of the surrounding environment.
6
SkyRidge provides an opportunity to establish a distinct architectural character of contemporary coastal housing.
This is to be reflected with the use of masonry and lightweight materials such as:
•
timber, weatherboard, and other contemporary cladding, rendered brick and stone
•
natural finished materials
•
light to medium colour tones
•
a large proportion of glazing
•
contemporary roof profiles
•
elements such as open balconies, verandahs, and porches to face public spaces
•
open plan designs that seamlessly blend indoor and outdoor living
The built form should embody simplicity and elegance, relating comfortably to the coastal environment. The blending and balance of building materials, colours and textures contained in this document is required. Replication of architectural styles such as Federation, Georgian, Tuscan, and Mediterranean are not considered appropriate.

MANDATORY TWO STOREY DWELLINGS AND PROMINENT LOTS Appendix A refers to Mandatory Two Storey Dwellings and Prominent Lots, which are highlighted in the House Control Plan, also shown in Appendix A. These are required to comply with mandatory two storey or single storey specific design outcomes sympathetic to the site. These requirements are to be read in conjunction with the general Design Guidelines.

Homes are to represent Contemporary QLD Architecture and Design Contemporary Queensland Architecture and Design relates entirely to the distinct and unique climate of South East Queensland. It is imperative during the planning phase to consider the following: • The topography of the site, with particular emphasis on a home design that responds to the landscape and slope, without the need for excessive retaining • A home constructed of building materials and finishes that are sympathetic to the local surroundings, with carefully considered textures and colours • A mixture of masonry and lightweight materials with generous decks responding to the topography of the site and views to the coast or nature • Deep verandahs and porches accompanied by well-planned windows and openings allowing for natural flow-through breezes • Passive surveillance to the street and public spaces • Well planned spaces that provide you with a seamless indoor/outdoor living year-round

Works on the allotment that results in cut areas being visible from the street or public space must be carefully treated as part of the overall landscape design ensuring appropriate drainage is provided to avoid impact to adjoining lots. No earthworks shall be undertaken where excavation or fill is greater than one metre from the present surface level of the lot, or demonstration of appropriate terracing method shall be presented for review where the proposed excavations exceed one metre. No fill shall be introduced to or removed from the site. Retaining walls and embankments must be terraced and suitably landscaped with shrubs and ground covers. Earthworks shall not alter the direction of stormwater overland flows or cause nuisance flows to adjacent properties.

Garages are permitted to be constructed at a zero offset to the front boundary where the lot does not permit a suitable platform to the standard front setbacks. Where Garages are constructed forward of the main building, the sides of the garage must be battened with materials such as stained hardwood or aluminium slats and provide a minimum of 30% transparency. Where the remainder of the dwelling is recessed by more than three metres, a gatehouse must be provided that is level with the front wall of the garage. If a gatehouse is provided, it must represent the same features and colours of the main dwelling and is to be a minimum height of 3.5m to the soffit/beam. A front fence must accompany the gatehouse in accordance with the approved types indicated in Appendix B of the Design Guidelines. A Pergola is also permitted as a structure to the front of the lot and must be a minimum height of 3.5m and the structure is to extend for a minimum of four metres in depth.
