2 | CRED CONSULTING - PEOPLE, PLACE AND PARTNERSHIP
INTRODUCTION
In response to increased development interest and activity along Darlinghurst Road, Kings Cross, the City of Sydney (Council) is reviewing some parts of the planning framework that guide local character and development along Darlinghurst Road.
As part of this review, Council engaged Cred Consulting, Micromex Research and People, Place and Partnership to undertake an online survey and workshop with the local community to better understand their views around the character, built form and experience along Darlinghurst Road, both currently and in the future.
This included ideas about what makes Darlinghurst Road special, what needs to be protected and the types of activities and land uses the community think are appropriate.
PROJECT BACKGROUNDThe Kings Cross area of the City of Sydney Local Government Area (LGA) is an internationally renowned precinct with a long and rich history, and a unique cultural identity and character.
The Darlinghurst Road, Kings Cross area is currently in a transition phase, with increased interest in redevelopment due to its changing amenity, decreased late-night activity, access to public transport and proximity to the Sydney CBD.
In 2017, a Development Application was received by Council for the famous ‘Bourbon’ site located at 18-28 Darlinghurst Road. This proposal was unpopular amongst residents and business owners. A community meeting held on 18 January 2018 was attended by more than 200 local stakeholders who expressed their concerns about the scale of the development and its potential impact on local heritage values, amenity and cultural identity.
provide Council with community directions for strategic local planning to preserve or guide the character of the Darlinghurst Road, Kings Cross area through its current transition.
Council resolution
On 19 February 2018, Council unanimously supported the motion to:
– Commission an urban design study to identify design principles for the site, including an indicative design strategy to provide an illustration of how good design can achieve better outcomes within the current controls;
– Establish a Design Advisory Panel sub-committee to set the parameters of the urban design study and closely monitor progress; and
– Audit the current planning controls for improvements that could be considered and consulted with the community during the current review of the Late-night Development Control Plan and upcoming review of the Sydney Local Environmental Plan 2012 and Sydney Development Control Plan 2012.
About the urban design study
Council is working closely with the Design Advisory Panel to prepare an urban design study that will identify and illustrate good design principles within the current controls for the study area (shown in Figure 1) as well as the site of 18-28 Darlinghurst Road. The focus is on better guidance for good design and appropriate land uses, without changing population density targets for the area as set by the State Government.

These character words will help inform a review of policy
Road, such as the Kings Cross Locality Statement.
Activity overview
Looking at a set of 50 chair picture cards, each group was asked to “imagine 10 years from now, you are hosting an intimate dinner party for 4 people. You have an option of using 4 different chairs to represent your neighbourhood. Which chairs would you use at the table to best represent the future personality of Darlinghurst Road? Tell us about the chair you have chosen and what personality trait it represents.”
The page opposite provides a diagrammatic synthesis of the chairs and character words chosen by the 8 groups.
Appendix 1 provides a detailed record of the top 10 chairs overall.

ACTIVITY 3: HOT OR NOT
The purpose of this activity was to gain insight into the workshop participants’ views on what type of buildings and architectural styles are and are not appropriate for Darlinghurst Road, Kings Cross.
Activity Overview
Participants were asked to yell out “hot” or “not” (accompanied by a thumbs up or down) as the facilitator
wasn’t a clear vote, the image would go into an ‘undecided’ pile.
The image set captured a range of building styles, eras, land uses, shapes, materials and interfaces. More than half of the images depicted existing buildings in the local area. The remaining images were a mix of contemporary architecture in Australia and overseas.
Once the images were sorted into “hot” “not” and “unsure” piles, participants discussed the following:
– What are the commonalities between the ‘hots’?
– What are the commonalities between the ‘nots’?
– Why was this image an ‘unsure’ for you?
Notes on methodology
– Participants were asked to consider the images as ‘hot or not’ in the context of what they think is an appropriate look and feel for Darlinghurst Road – not whether the architecture is universally good or bad. There are a number of award winning buildings in the pack that were not selected as ‘hot’ for the study area – this is not a
– Some groups did not make it through the full pile of image cards.
KEY FINDINGS
preferences amongst workshop participants.
What was hot?
– All of the 100% “hot” images and some of the highly scored ones (60%+ ‘hot’) were existing, older style buildings in the local area - with red brick or a light colour paint / material
– Many of these buildings had closed in or no balconies
– Detail, classically embossed / beveled building facades
– It seems participants were more likely to accept contemporary buildings if they had green or curved elements (without too much glass, gray or steel) that are in character with the area.
What was not?
– Generic or homogeneous
– Buildings that aren’t in character with Darlinghurst Road
– Wide, bulky and boxy shapes
– High number of large residential balconies opening up to the street
–
– Use of too much glass, steel and gray
– Lack of detail and craftsmanship.
What attracted mixed opinions?
– Contemporary buildings that combine multiple different types of materials and elements
– Unconventional breaking up of linear forms
– Use of laser cut screens to articulate the building facade
– Type of curves on some of the buildings.
In the personality exercise, a number of groups chose words like ‘colourful’ and ‘bold’ where as in this exercise, a number of groups voiced their dislike for colour in buildings. This may indicate that the participants want the people, culture, activities and experience to be ‘colourful’ and ‘bold,’ but not so much the built form.
The following pages provide a visual summary of “hot” “not” and “mixed opinion” images, as well as give an overall score for each of the images.

ACTIVITY OVERVIEW This workshop activity aimed to help participants understand and explore current planning controls around built form volume along Darlinghurst Road, Kings Cross and how they would like to see controls change in the future, if at all.
Groups were presented with a scale plan of a part of Darlinghurst Road and a set of wooden blocks. After explaining current height limits and Floor Space Ratio (FSR), a planner or designer worked with the group to maneuver the blocks to demonstrate the scale, proportionality, shape and height of buildings, as well as the impact of land use (e.g. requirements around residential vs commercial land uses). Participants discussed what worked well, what didn’t work, and what kind of development should be allowed in the study area in the future.
Rather than reach a consensus on preferred building form or controls, this workshop activity aimed to facilitate a discussion between community members and City of Sydney planners and designers. Some of the topics revealed polar opposite views amongst the group members and ignited robust conversations around each viewpoint.
A wide range of views and topics were covered across all groups. Overall, participants held different views on whether change along Darlinghurst Road is positive or negative for the area, with some wanting it to stay the same as it is today

Some groups talked about light wells and internal courtyards as solutions for increased amenity for residential building – without needing to setback the building from the property boundary. The Wintergarden (8 stories) was cited as a good example. However, people did not want to see a row of buildings like the Wintergarden next to each other creating a tall continuous street wall – they would need to be feature buildings and spaced out from each other to be acceptable.
TRADE OFFS
Some groups explored the idea of trade offs, including height bonuses for providing extra amenity, keeping/restoring original facades, or for providing things like child care, cinemas, aged care and health care. Almost no one was ambivalent about this – it was a polarising conversation.
SET BACKS
Participants had mixed opinions about set backs. Some were supportive of set backs along the street to accommodate different activities like greenery, seating and gathering places (Llankelly Place was used as example). Others argued the value of a continuous and consistent built edge to the street. Some wanted to see setbacks above original facades
Participant feedback on activity included

KEY DISCUSSION TOPICS INCLUDED:
ARCHITECTURE
Participants emphasized that part of what makes Darlinghurst Road a unique and interesting place is diverse, heritage, urban, art deco, non-homogenous and detailed architecture. They highlighted the importance of quality buildings.
LAND USE
Participants supported a mix of commercial and residential uses along Darlinghurst Road.
They would like to see publicly accessible and commercial / retail uses with direct and multiple entries at the ground level to further connect the buildings with people on the street.
diversity of independent/local shops with a range of price points. Participants are very supportive of small local businesses along the strip.
incorporated onto the street and buildings.
HEIGHT/FSR
Participants supported varying building heights (not all at 6 storeys), noting that existing feature buildings add interest to the area and avoid a homogenous built form.
While some groups accepted the 6-7 storeys / 22m height limit, others felt it was too high, preferring a 2-4 storey street wall, similar to what is there now.
Some groups were concerned about future overshadowing of streets and spaces.
Some participants were concerned about the potential wind tunnel effects of taller buildings.
A few participants were supportive of tall buildings, provided that they are spaced out and thin to manage overshadowing and wind tunnels.
Some participants called for Council to push back on State Government density targets – stating that they think the height and FSR controls are too much currently.
Some groups explored the impacts of pushing height to the back of the block to have a shorter street wall or additional public space along Darlinghurst Road.
