8.6 CORNER AND LANDMARK BUILDING<br />

ARTICULATION<br />

Controls<br />

Note: Refer to Part 2 of this DCP of a landmark building.<br />

1 Corner buildings must address both street frontages.<br />

2 Street corners must be emphasised by giving visual prominence to<br />

parts of the building facade. This may be achieved through<br />

i) a change in building articulation<br />

ii) a change in building material of colour<br />

iii) a change in height<br />

iv) roof expansion<br />

v) staged setbacks or curves<br />

vi) corner entry<br />

3 Buildings in landmark positions are to be of a high architectural<br />

quality and contribute significantly to the local built environment.<br />
