The client's brief was to create a retail centre that both functioned successfully and was of a form that presented as identifiable and striking architecture.

The roof is supported by a free-spaning rafter from the rear wall to blade column allowing the shopfront to be a column-free zone. The architecturally striking form with a juxtaposition of horizontality and verticality was creating public and tenant interest even before completion and has now become a local icon with Stage 2 planned for the near future.

Large open spaces with generous ceilings creates an open, relaxed shopping and dining atmosphere for the local suburb.
