1. KEY DESIGN PRINCIPLES
Section 1
1. Visitor Experience and Management• Provide facilities which provide for a high quality visitor
experience and promote appreciation of the water quality and
catchments, natural and cultural heritage
• Design to encourage positive visitor behaviours in areas and
ways that ensures the protection of safety of drinking water.
2. Site Impact• Through facility planning and design, minimise and manage
potential impacts of visitor activities on water quality, biodiversity,
conservation values and site neighbours
3. Site Influence• Consider those physical, cultural and existing site use elements
within the site which affect the use and physical layout of
facilities.
4. Sense of Place and Identity• Consider the unique qualities of each site while balancing the
need for a cohesive State, regional and local identity using local
materials.
5. Levels of Service• Determine the appropriate levels of service for each site and
facility.
6. Design Quality• Promote a high level of design quality that meets location, visitor
numbers and ongoing maintenance requirements.
7. Materials• Choose materials for their contribution towards the overall
character and sense of identity of the facility and to meet ongoing
risk management and maintenance requirements. Use materials
that have low life cycle impacts and high reuse/recycled contents.
8. Environmentally Sustainable Design• Design facilities to meet environmentally sustainable design
standards for low energy, water and resource use.
9. Target Users• Recognise user types, their frequency of use and preferences in
the design of all facilities.
10. Buildability• Consider buildability in the design of facilities, particularly in
locations where access is constrained.
11. Safety and Risk Management• Comply with all statutory requirements and give preference to
accessible and safe design outcomes that appropriately manage
risk.
12. Fire
• Site and design facilities to recognise fire risk and provide for
visitor safety.
The following design principles will promote accessibility, celebrate and enhance the unique character of the landscape, and prioritise the protection of water quality.
