Amex Corporation was established in 1987 as a property

development company specialising in residential land

subdivision, operating initially in Perth and then expanding

into Brisbane (1988) and Melbourne (1993).

The company is a family based privately owned organisation

with family members actively involved in the executive

management of the business.

It is Amex’s strategy to make long term investments in future

residential land and the community that is created from it.

World class planning and a collaborative approach to the

statutory approval process are key elements to this strategy.

Amex Corporation has set a vision to create a master planned community within the heart of Ripley Valley on the urban outskirts of Brisbane - A progressive, vibrant and modern new town, that brings back true neighbourhood living.

What is Providence?

2

Project Vision “A progressive, vibrant and modern new town, that brings back true neighbourhood living.”

Providence offers a breath of fresh air: A new address that melds the values of the past with benefits and opportunities of the future.

4

A place that harnesses people’s passion. That gives rather than takes. A substantial and prosperous new address that provides all the opportunities of “live, learn, work, play and stay”, but never loses its soul, being its community heart created around true neighbourhood values.

A town with a focus on the future, that is in tune with the desires of its community, that evolves and adds new layers, always centred around people, to create the most desirable new address choice in Brisbane’s western fringe.

A unique and special place built around people and the basic human need to connect with others. To be inspired. To bring out their creative side in ways they may have never thought possible.

Step 1 • Once you have purchased your site, discuss the housing and landscaping

design standards with sales staff and/or the DRC

• Please note individual lot guidelines which may apply to allotments in

Parkview, Affinity, Grandview releases (Stages 4-6). Refer to Appendices

A and B.

• Meet with your designer to commence concept design

Step 2 • Submission of Concept or Sketch Drawings to DRC for initial approval

• DRC will give written feedback or may contact you to organise a

meeting with you and your designer

• Address any issues raised by the DRC and resubmit if required

Step 3 • After receiving written approval from DRC, commence Building

Application documents including landscape plans

• Submission of Building Application document to DRC for approval.

• DRC will give written feedback or may contact you to organise a meeting

with you and your designer

• Address any issues raised by the DRC and resubmit if required

Step 4 • After receiving written approval from the DRC, commence your energy

audit, engineering and other consultant documents as required to submit

your Building Application to your private certifier.

• If design changes through this process you must resubmit to the DRC.

• Submit a copy of your stamped approved Building Application and energy

rating assessment to DRC

Step 5 • Construction of Approved home must be commenced within 12 months

of purchase of the land and completed within a further 9 months

• Landscaping is to be completed within the same time frame

• DRC will inspect homes during or after completion to ensure its

compliance with the approved drawings

Approval Procedure To help assess your new home the Design Review Committee

(DRC) require the home builder to provide clear documents

to describe the look, layout and material intended to be used

and to make sure that all homes are in keeping with the vision

for the Providence Community.

Building works may not commence until DRC has issued

formal written approval of the documentation.

All documents should be 1:100 scale at A3 and show your

contact information and site details including lot and

street number.

Your builder must submit all documents via the DRC email

address - [email protected].

To ensure the design review and approval process can be

finalised as soon as possible please include in the submission

a completed Minimum Documents Checklist for DRC - this

can be found in appendix “E” or requested digitally via the

email above.

Plan of DevelopmentAppendix D comprises the Plan of Development. This

plan contains the minimum design controls to be met in

accordance with the relevant Approval Authority at State

and Local Government. The Home Design Guidelines are

aligned with the Plan of Development controls, however

they also provide additional controls so that the preferred

neighbourhood outcomes are achieved as part of the design

vision for Providence. The Design Review Committee may

approve design outcomes that are different to the Home

Design Guidelines subject to demonstration of similar

outcomes. The DRC cannot approve different solutions to

those contained in the Plan of Development.

6

Design VisionThe intent of these guidelines is to foster a modern

contemporary town feel. They comprise guidelines to assist

in the promotion of a consistent and high standard of house

and garden design.

Contemporary modern homes will be achieved through

consistent setback controls, complementary colours and

material selection and gardens that enhance the streetscape

and the neighbourhood of your home.

7

Site Planning

Climate and Building OrientationA home that is well positioned on its site delivers significant

lifestyle and environmental benefits. Correct orientation

assists passive heating and cooling, resulting in improved

comfort and decreased energy bills.

Natural GasWhen designing your home and planning for your homesite,

it is important to consider service and energy connections.

Providence will provide natural gas as an alternative energy

source to electricity that assists in reducing your carbon

footprint and making your home and neighbourhood a cleaner

place to live.

Natural gas is the cleanest burning of all fossil fuels.

In Providence, natural gas is the preferred energy source

for cooking and hot water. Choosing natural gas is a sure

way to reduce your carbon footprint.

National Broadband NetworkHomes to have provision for the NBN Co to be connected

immediately or by subsequent home owners, by providing the

conduiting and power point as detailed in Appendix C ‘ Key

information for builders and cablers’.

8

Site cover and amenitySite cover for each lot is varies and is shown on the setback

table. For specific site cover details relevant to your lot type

please refer to the Plan of Development.

Dwellings must have a minimum area of private open space

at ground or upper levels accessible from a living room

consisting of at least:

- for a two bedroom dwelling, 9.0m2 with a minimum width

of 2.4m.

- for a three or more bedroom dwelling, 12.0m2 with

a minimum width of 2.4m.

9

Setbacks and height• The maximum height of buildings shall be in the order

of 9 metres.

Setbacks are specified as contained in the Setback Table.

• The location of the built to boundary walls are indicated on

the Plan of Development included in your Sales Package.

Privacy created through fencing and vegetation

Private Open SpaceWhen private open space is designed and located thoughtfully

in site planning for the home, it will dramatically enhance the

lifestyle needs of the residents. Private open space should be

located to have strong relationships with the internal living

areas of the dwelling to maximise entertaining, relaxation and

recreation living areas. It is also important for private open

space to be functional for day to day needs.

• Private open space should be located, where possible

to maximise Northern & North-Eastern exposure of the

allotment. Ensure privacy of the occupants and consider

overshadowing impacts on adjacent buildings and

open space.

• Private open space should have a clear relationship to the

internal living area of the dwelling.

• The design of your home should focus on quality of the

space in terms of orientation, size, shape and landscape

treatment.

• Refer also to section on site cover and amenity.

Indoor/outdoor living

13

Garages and Driveways The design of your home must provide accommodation for

your vehicles on-site with minimal visual obtrusiveness and

adequate provision for vehicle manoeuvring. The location

and treatment of garages and garage doors is to contribute

positively to the streetscape and be in accordance with the

following requirements:

Garages are to be constructed simultaneously with the dwelling

and be compatible with the main building in teams of height, walls,

windows, roof forms, colours and materials.

Additional car parking spaces may be provided in tandem

within the property boundary. No carports are permitted.

Other than where accessed from a laneway, the maximum

width of a driveway at the lot boundary shall be 4.8m where

serving a double garage and 3.0m where serving a single garage.

There is a maximum of one driveway per dwelling, unless it

is a corner lot.

It is envisaged that the presentation of the dwellings at Providence will reflect the modern vibrancy of the Town. The following guidelines aim to ensure your investment by maintaining the overall quality of the neighbourhood through building design and an appreciation of the local environment and lifestyle.

Building Design

14

Roofs Roof design should be representative of the contemporary

Town “feel”, whilst showing respect for local environmental

values. Roof designs that are a simple composition of shapes

will aid in reducing their visual prominence. The use of

verandahs, balconies and other architectural elements are

encouraged to create interest in the roof design. A break in

length shall be provided for fascias longer than 15m, where

fronting a street.

Roof materials shall consist of either colorbond or

a flat profile roof tile.

Roofs should conform to the following types:

• Pitched roofs at a minimum of 22.5° (hip or gable);

• Skillion roofs; and

• Flat parapeted roofs.

Verandahs Balconies and Porches The inclusion of verandahs, balconies and porches in the

design of your home will contribute to your enjoyment, safety

and comfort. Where verandahs, balconies or porches are

included they should complement the dwelling style, materials

and colours and should not dominate or be out of scale with

the front elevation of the dwelling.

Front verandahs, or porches should be designed so as

to identify and emphasise the entrance to the dwelling.

15

Building Articulation and TreatmentExternal colours used in the design of your home should be

an expression of natural finishes that will complement the

colours of the surrounding natural environment. External

materials should be of a harmonious design, selected to

enhance features of the dwelling and be respectful of the

character of nearby dwellings. The building should conform

to the following:

Front facade materials and colours

• Minimum of 2 complementary materials and colours to

facade facing street and no more than 4 different materials

and colours.

• A limit of 80% total wall coverage (excluding windows/

openings) applies to the use of any one material or colour.

• Face Brickwork may be used as a feature to the front facade

to a maximum of 50% of total wall coverage (excluding

windows/openings).

Note: Samples of external colours (roof and walls) must be submitted and approved as part of the approval process. “Feature” colours will be considered on application.

16

Building Articulation Primary Frontage Treatment - Street Address

• Each street or park frontage must be addressed with

inclusion of three or more of the following design

elements in the related facade:

- balconies, porches or verandahs;

- awning and shade structures;

- variation to roof and building lines;

- inclusion of window openings; and

- use of varying building materials.

Secondary Frontage Treatment

All buildings with a facade of more than 10.0m that are

visible from a street or park are articulated to reduce the

mass of the building by two or more of the following:

- windows recessed into the facade;

- balconies, porches or verandahs;

- window hoods; and

- shadow lines are created on the building through

minor changes in the facade (100mm minimum). - use of varying building materials.

17

The landscape in any home is an important part of the lifestyle of the owners and character of the lot. Landscapes also form an important part of the streetscape, neighbourhood and its links to the community and character of the local area. It provides basic needs such as shading, colour, texture and privacy. It also helps to soften the hard elements of the buildings in the neighbourhood and provide us with a link to nature that is too often lost in urban areas.

The design of your landscape should look to utilise plants, materials and finishes that complement your lifestyle and your house. It is also a great opportunity to contribute to the appearance and quality of your neighbourhood.

Landscaping

18

Planting DesignSelect plants should be suited to the local climate and rainfall.

Native species that have evolved in your region are best

adapted to cope with local conditions. As the Ripley Valley

area is in Sub-Tropical South East Queensland, there are a

number of local native species as well as appropriate exotic

plants that grow well in the local soil types.

Some of the benefits of native plant species are:

• Encourage local/ native fauna and insect species;

• Often require less watering to thrive;

• Require less fertiliser and additives to thrive;

• Wide range of forms, flowers and colours available.

Front Yard LandscapesThe design and presentation of your front yard can not only

improve the presentation and value of your home but can

help to improve the quality and appearance of the street in

which you live. A well designed and maintained front yard

helps to promote community pride and create awareness of

the importance of the landscape in people’s homes and lives.

When designing your front yard the following should be considered

in maximising presentation, access and amenity aspects:

• Design planting and paths to address the different levels

of access into your home;

• Place trees to provide shade and screening to rooms at the

front of the house;

• Ensure planting selection and garden bed location offer

clear views and surveillance opportunities to the street;

• Look to maximise colour and texture opportunities to

highlight the architectural form and features of your home.

19

Retaining WallsRetaining can walls can help to enhance your house in the

following ways:

• Maximise usable areas in your garden especially where there

is a change of level between your house and the footpath

• Complement your home and garden areas through the

selection of complementary wall materials, colours and

locations.

Some of the materials for retaining walls are:

• Split Face Masonry

• Rendered and painted smooth face masonry

• Landscape ‘key stone’ walls

• A Grade sandstone blocks

The following materials will not be permitted in front

yard landscapes:

• Timber sleeper (treated or untreated);

• Concrete sleeper walls

20

Front FencingFront fencing generally is not permitted except for special

circumstances such as:

• Privacy around outdoor living spaces when located in the

front yard (or side yard in the case of corner lots); and

• Privacy and safety around swimming pools when located

in the front yard or side yard in the case of corner lots.

In such cases, fencing in the front yard shall be limited to:

• 50% transparent or not to exceed 1.2 metres in height

• A maximum of 60% of the front boundary length; and

• Setback 1.5m from the front property boundary to allow

for landscaping and screen planting, for at least 50% of

the fence’s length, except where adequate perforation is

provided to minimise the visual impact on the street.

Side and rear boundary privacy fencingSide and rear boundary fencing should consider the need

for privacy, security and amenity. Materials and colours

should complement your home and garden areas.

21

Side fencing on corner lotsTo create a neighbourhood streetscape it is important for

side fencing on corner lots to not only provide a dwelling

with privacy but also to present well to a public street.

The adjacent plan is an example of locations where side

fencing is required to provide fence types in accordance with

Types A and B as shown in the diagrams. These fence types

will be required on similar lots throughout the Providence

Community.

If visible from a street or park, the tops of fences on sloping

lots must be horizontal and not follow the line of slope.

Steps in the fence will be required in gradual increments.

Site conditions are likely to differ depending on landform,

so alternative solutions will be considered by the Design

Review Committee. T Y P I C A L L A N E W A YMin 1m

DrivewaysThe driveway can often dominate the frontage of the home

and detract from the streetscape appeal. Only one driveway

is permitted for each allotment and it is the intention to soften

the visual impact of the driveway by designing it to address

the following:

• Not greater than 3.0m for a single garage and no greater

than 4.8m wide for a double garage at the street boundary;

• Extend from the kerb edge to the garage/carport;

• Allow for at least 1.0m of screen planting between driveway

and side boundaries (where possible);

• Require minimal earth works and disturbance to existing

surface features by crossing slope and have a maximum

gradient to comply with the relevant Australian Standard;

• Be completed prior to the occupancy of the home; and

• Ensure that finished surface level of the driveway is

consistent with any existing footpaths that it may cross.

Driveway surface materials and colours are to complement

the dwelling and landscape and may include:

• Concrete or clay pavers laid over reinforced concrete base;

• Exposed aggregate; or

• Coloured concrete.

The use of other products or materials must be approved.

Under coated grey, broom-finished concrete and stamped

driveways are NOT acceptable. Car track driveways are

NOT acceptable.

24

Letter BoxesLetter boxes must be clearly visible and identifiable from

the street or lane as relevant and are to be designed and

constructed to be consistent in material and colours with

the dwelling.

It is preferred that letter boxes are constructed of brick or

similar material and incorporated into the landscaping.

Letter boxes on poles are NOT acceptable.

25

Ancillary Structures

Garbage Bin Storage, Plant and EquipmentGarbage bins, plant and equipment (eg. air conditioner

condensers), must not be visible from a street or park.

Appropriate site design or screening measures with fences

or enclosures that complement the material and colours of

the house, should be adopted.

26

Cost efficient homes, smart homes, sustainable homes are all terms used to describe homes

that are designed to save money, increase the value of your investment, feel safer, move around

more easily and help the environment. When designing a home, it is important that it is

environmentally sustainable and responds to the needs of your family as it grows with reduced

maintenance and running costs over time. Principles worth considering and discussing with

your builder are comprised below.

1. Glazing and Frames Materials

a. Consider passive solar design - window placement, size and shading

b. Controlling heat flow through glazing and window frame material

c. Use WERS to determine glazing requirements

2. Insulation for ceilings and walls

a. Combine insulation with design for climate considerations

b. Consider insulation type and material to suit local climatic conditions and external

wall exposure

3. Indoor Air Quality relating to materials and finishes and ventilation

a. Consider the types of paints, glues, plastics, and some manufactured wood products

These can release chemical substances at room temperature, called VOC’s

(Volatile Organic Compounds). Consider toxicity, quantity and proximity of materials

b. Ensure cross-ventilation through passive solar design techniques and ceiling fans

as well as mechanical ventilation in bathrooms

Environmentally Sustainable Design

27

4. Hot Water Systems

a. Review types of hot water systems to meet your expected usage, operating cost and

available energy sources from solar, gas or electricity

5. Lighting and Energy Consumption

a. Consider the range of energy available from solar, gas and electrical

b. Maximise daylight where most required

c. Install multiple switches to control lighting

d. Use compact florescent lights and LED lighting as the most efficient and cost-saving

lighting over longer periods, despite the initial up front cost

e. Spend time with your builder designing the location of lighting and switches to make

your home safe and efficient

6. Water Usage and Harvesting

a. Conserving water saves you money. Install water efficient taps, shower heads, toilets

and appliances. Use drought resistant plants and groundcovers where grass is not

needed. Wash cars, caravan and boats on the grass where possible

b. Whilst rainwater tanks are not mandatory, it makes sense to use free water from the

sky for external use, rather than pay for it

7. Promote resource efficiency

a. When considering your bench tops, splashbacks, doors, shelves and cabinetry, and

floors, use products such as natural stone, reconstituted stone, natural timber,

recycled wood products and some glued-wood products such as composite products,

finger-jointed timber, laminated timber, fibreboard, hardboard and plywood

8. Universal Design

a. Consider the longevity of your home which spans age, gender and ability

b. Provide easy access to your home from your street and your garage

c. Have a room on the ground floor that could be adapted as an additional bathroom

and bedroom

d. Incorporate doors and corridors that allow for easy access and movement – consider

corridor width

e. Consider kitchens that are safe for all people to use

f. Consider handles and tapware within easy reach by all people

9. Construction types

a. Heavyweight and lightweight materials used in construction differ in mass content.

Heavyweight construction systems are usually masonry and include brick, concrete,

concrete block, tiles, rammed earth, mud brick, etc. Lightweight construction uses

timber or light gauge steel framing as the structural support system for non-structural

cladding and linings (eg. fibre cement, plywood and colorbond steel)

b. Consider construction types and a combination of both according to such things

as site conditions (such as slope), optimising climatic outcomes, and external or

internal usage

10. Passive Heating and Cooling

SummerObjective: Design to reduce heat gain to internal and external areas

Solar Access & Shading

The following principles should be applied:

• design to provide shading to all walls, openings, outdoor living areas and hardstand

paving to minimise heat absorption and reflection through:

• wide eaves designed to shade summer sun;

design shading devices to suit the orientation (east and west require different

shading to north); screening structures; and screening vegetation such as vines on

trellises to shade walls.

• design glazing size and location to minimise heat gain in summer and heat loss in winter.

15% glazing ratio (window to floor area ratio). Too much glass leads to overheating;

• provide fewer windows on the east and west elevations; and

• where applicable consider glazing tint to allow light and minimise heat transfer.

Insulation


• external lightweight skin insulates the mass in walls from solar gain allowing it to act as

a heat sink during the day to maintain interior cool;

• provide insulation to roofs and walls to prevent heat gain from the exterior in summer; and

• reduce heat gain issues of colours selected for façade and roof.

Thermal Mass


• provide shading to internal thermal mass in walls and floors for cooling effect of heat sink in

summer; and

• thermal mass may require access to night ventilation for purging of any heat gained during

the day to avoid excess internal heat gain.

Natural Ventilation


• use open planning to enhance cross ventilation;

• locate openings in buildings and courtyards between buildings to catch the prevailing

breezes (north east or south east); and

• use vegetation plantings to channel cooling breezes into buildings.

WinterObjective: Design to enable heat gain to internal and external areas

Solar Access

The following principle should be applied:

Design of shading to enable solar access to internal and external living areas –

particularly in the morning and afternoon through;

- Eaves designed to allow winter sun

- Window shading designed to allow winter sun

- Deciduous vegetation (trees and vines on trellises)

Thermal Mass

Provide thermal mass in walls and floors (interior and exterior) and expose to radiant

heat (sun). The mass in walls and floors is used to store and release heat energy to

stabilise internal temperatures.

Natural Ventilation

Locate buildings and vegetation plantings to screen outdoor areas from winter westerly winds.

Insulation


• provide insulation to walls and roofs to prevent heat loss from the exterior in winter; and

• provide curtains to windows / doors to retain heat during night.

Individual lot GuidelinesThe highlighted lots in the adjacent Key Plan are key sites and must consider the

individual lot guidelines contained within this document to ensure a quality outcome.

Appendix B is divided into two sections - Housing Guidelines and Landscaping

Guidelines.

These guidelines are to be read in conjunction with the Plan of Development and

the Home Design Guidelines. This document provides guidelines to homes that

are visually prominent. They are aimed at achieving a quality housing and landscape

outcome that will protect your investment in the neighbourhood.

All individual home designs and landscaping treatments will be reviewed by the

Design Review Committee. It is understood that particular building and on-site

conditions may vary which will require different design solutions that may not be

contained in this document. Therefore alternative treatments may be considered,

provided they demonstrate similar outcomes to the design guidelines.

Building Commencement:

To ensure neighbourhoods are completed in a timely manner, building is to

commence within 12 months of purchase of your home allotment.

Plan of DevelopmentAppendix D comprises the Plan of Development. This plan contains the minimum

design controls to be met in accordance with the relevant Approval Authority at

State and Local Government. The Home Design Guidelines are aligned with the

Plan of Development controls, however they also provide additional controls so that

the preferred neighbourhood outcomes are achieved as part of the design vision

for Providence. The Design Review Committee may approve design outcomes that

are different to the Home Design Guidelines subject to demonstration of similar

outcomes. The DRC cannot approve different solutions to those contained in the

Plan of Development.

Front Setback - Garage The garage setback refers to the wall

supporting the garage door or opening to your

garage.

Maximum Building HeightThe maximum building height of your home

is in the order of 9 metres from the allotment

ground surface level excluding projections

such as an antenna aerial, chimney, flagpole

or the like. This level is defined as the ‘as-

constructed’ finished level of the lot provided

by the developer.

PorchA porch delineates the entry to your home and

may extend forward of the front building wall.

Rear or Side Setback

adjoining a ParkIf your rear or side boundary fronts a park,

then balconies or verandahs may be built to

the boundary, provided eaves and gutters do

not extend beyond the boundary.

Roof MaterialRoof materials include:

• Colourbond style

• Flat profile roof tile

Roof TypesThere are 3 preferred roof types defined as

follows:

• Pitched roofs

• Skillion roofs

• Flat parapet roofs

Side and Rear SetbackThe side and rear setback is measured to the

building wall, edge of balcony and verandah.

Eaves (except on a built to boundary wall),

should not encroach within 450mm of the side

or rear boundaries. Gutters may not extend

beyond the boundary of the allotment.

Site CoverSite cover is defined as the proportion of

the site covered by buildings including roof

overhangs (eaves).

Street FrontagePrimary Frontage is the street to which

your address and house number is

allocated, where the Primary Frontage is not

specifically identified on the approved Plan of

Development or in Appendix D.

Secondary Frontage occurs on a corner

allotment where the side elevation of your

home also fronts the street (excluding a laneway).
