The development of the scheme into Concept Design involves a constant refinement of the ideas described by the Site Analysis and the feedback and views expressed by the community at the Stakeholder Workshop held by Bark in May. As the Concept Design develops in detail, the project will continually refer back to the initial Brief to ensure that the design retains the strengths of the early analysis and responds to the wishes of the community.

Design Considerations

• Simplicity, functionality and flexibility

• Protection from western sun and harsh summer sun

• Cross ventilation for maximum advantage of breezes

• Connection to surrounding areas

• Maximum use of natural light

• Natural palette of materials

• Efficient, practical and cost effective structural solution

• Flexible spaces for both small and large groups and various types of gathering

Key Strategies

• Hall orientated to north for access to northern light and views to sports field, playground, BBQ area and surrounding native landscape

• Wide verandahs to provide weather protection and seating

• Large, operable doors and windows open the building to cross ventilation and seamless integration of outdoors

• Entry accessible via ramp from carpark

• Kitchen is practical and efficient, with servery windows both internal and external

• ‘Outdoor Room’ extends hall’s functional footprint and ‘captures landscape’ to be used for community events

Stakeholder Requirements

NTS

SD.18

Integration of Stakeholder Requirements Curra Community Stakeholder Workshop was held on 17 May 2016 at Curra Country Club. Throughout the design process, feedback and outcomes from the Stakeholder Workshop were addressed in our concept design. Key stakeholder requirements were considered as follows:

1. Moveable Partition WallsThe main hall floor space has been left as an open space and two ‘meeting rooms’ / ‘gathering spaces’ have been created on the verandah to accommodate smaller groups for both formal and informal gathering. Acoustic portable partition walls can be housed in the storage room and used when required. Partition walls not included in budget.

2. In house PA System and AVInstallation of the wiring suitable for future PA System integration and user brought AV equipment has been included in budget. Equipment not included.

3. Storage - LockableOne lockable storage room, incorporating shelving has been created with dual access, both internal and external to accommodate tables, chairs and hall supplies. See Plan SD.04.

Independent lockable storage solutions can be purchased and kept in the storage room for each group if required. Not included in budget.

4. Specialist LightingGeneral lighting and electrical requirements have been included. Portable specialist lighting to be provided by user group.

5. AcousticsThe hall has been designed as a traditional “Shoebox”, which for acoustic principles is the best design for sound quality, concerts and performances. The acoustic performance can be enhanced with additional consultation input provided by an Acoustic Engineer who may consider acoustic panelling etc.

6. AccessibilityGeneral stair and ramp access has been considered to ensure hall is accessible to everyone in the community and compliant with AS.1428.1-2009.

7. StageRather than incorporating a fixed stage into the design, the floor plan will remain more flexible if portable stage platforms are utilised when required and then stored away.

8. Design for Future Expansion In designing the hall it was important to consider future expansion considerations as community needs and requirements may change in the future. The building has been divided structurally into 3.6m bays (defined by the spacing of trusses overhead) with idea that additional bays could be added to the east in the future. The area nominated on Plan SD.04, demonstrates the future foot-print of the building if this were to occur. The building has been aligned to the western edge of the tennis court, providing ample room to the east for expansion to occur.
