ANALYSIS
2.1 OVERVIEW
This section provides an overview of the architectural language that currently informs each of the 6 precincts making up the City Centre.
Positive and negative elements have been included in order to show successful architectural techniques from the past as well as those to be
avoided in the future. Included in the Analysis is a study of overseas, interstate and Perth-based precedents that have the potential to inform
new building principles in Stirling.

further defined and expanded to include key objectives and all constitute part of the urban condition in which building typologies are to be positioned.
Buildings are integral to the composition of the broader city form and perform a pivotal role of framing city streets and places, but the primary goal is to
create a city with a strong sense of community. As the people’s city, Stirling will practice social sustainability by ensuring its planning decisions are based

CHARACTER ZONES
10.1 OVERVIEW
Each precinct is identified by a unique composition of uses and infrastructure elements.
Given this, the Urban Typology Framework has focused on building types, architectural
elements, their potential relationship to landscape and the urban realm. Through this
process a visible pattern of increased urban intensity and character across the Structure Plan
area has emerged. This indicates the Typology Framework can be organized according to
distinctive “character zones” – zones that have a unique influence on the sensation of being
in that place. The character zones engender the principles contained within the Structure
plan and are defined according to their incremental proximity to the City Centre “heart”.
The naming protocol of the character zones has been selected to best describe a common
understanding of the places. These include Residential Gardens, Residential Communal,
Mixed Use Lifestyle, City Centre Heart and Civic Identity.

WATERLOO STREET DeNode - Mixed-Use
Architect / Builder • Candalepas Associates
Location • 52 Waterloo Street, Surrey Hills Sydney NW
Client Developer Haralambis Management
Key Statistics • 1900m2 site (estimate)
• 54 apartments
• 9 retail tenancies, 3 levels of basement parking for 81 cars
• 35m2 per dwelling density
Building Form • 6 storey apartments, with 3 bedroom over 3 levels
Description $45 million project Value: $18 million construction cost: 14 month build time
Variety of apartment sizes and layouts have been fitted into the L-shaped plan
on the rectangular site.
Access to the apartments is generally along open-air corridors, allowing
residents to have “front doors” within the building. In the northern wing, the
length of the access corridor is broken by the introduction of a horizontal
atrium that allows light and air to circulate through the block. Both wings
provide street wall profiles to the Surry Hills grid and free up space in the
rear of the site for a courtyard. This move naturally benefits the residents
of Waterloo Street, but also provides amenity for the rest of this crowded
neighbourhood. Heavy timber screens, smooth concrete and straightforward
brickwork all come from the honest materiality of the semi-industrial nature of
this part of Sydney.
The building itself steps back slightly at the corner in a counter-intuitive
gesture that actually emphasizes the public domain. It is fitting that a
restaurant has taken the corner space and colonized this outdoor plaza. www.
architectureau.com/articles/waterloo-street/
The residential spaces are organised into a hierarchy of smallest to largest,
with studio apartments located on the first level, then four bedroom sky
terraces on the second, third and fourth levels. This is readable on the
Waterloo Street facade where the width and height of each external room
increases the higher the level.
