b'By introducing water sensitive design and landscaped elements that incorporate waterthe existing prominence of the creek within the landscape is highlighted and a greater level of amenity is created. Blue and green infrastructure systems that are intertwined are a fundamental basis of the design, and their value is maintained by situating higher densities away from the creek so that views are maximised. This allows the prevailing winds to be distributed throughout the precinct,thus highlighting how good urban design can contribute to cooling the environment, providing a sustainable microclimate. Materiality of the urban environment can also aid as a cooling mechanism and by using heat reflective materials and lighter colours for paving instead of dark asphalt, this helps, create a more walkable environment. Retail shops, cafes and other community facilities are also distributed throughout the precinct.Terrain Blue system Green system Road systemPedestrian system9292Aerial view Greenroof systemStreet section 1 Street section 2Master of Urban Development & Design 2018-2019Studio 2 Sem2 8pt.indd 9 26/11/2019 5:00:14 PM'
