Design Ethos “ We have created a convenient , neighbourhood shopping centre while providing a safe family destination . We wanted to retain some of the nostalgia of a waterfront , as well as the greenery . For this reason , greenery was used as a central design consideration in line with the ethos of comfortable architecture ,” says Pearce .
Large trees from the previous Brightwater Commons were relocated to the main entrances to create strong focal points and connect the developments . Feature lighting and pedestrian walkways are interspersed with creepers and living green walls . The development features ‘ green lungs ’ around the perimeter where people can relax and enjoy a safe shopping environment .
