tony is a Director of the Kent Town architecture firm
Studio Nine, and he worked closely with Lightsview to
finesse the design of the Loft 38 home. The property uses
every square inch of its small frontage to accommodate
two bedrooms, a courtyard, open-plan kitchen and off-
street parking without ever feeling cluttered.
Incorporating several unusual and beautiful design

THE PAST CREATES THE FUTURE
A loft 38 scribble.
Lightsview’s Loft 38 – one of the suburb’s most innovative small allotment homes – started its life as scribbles on a piece of butter paper, the same way almost all of Tony Zappia’s projects do.

air to flow from the master bedroom’s
picture window throughout the house,
the design for the Loft 38 benefited
from the almost two decades of
experience Tony has in architecture.
“I would say most of our previous
projects contribute to the Loft 38 as
they do in all of our projects in some
way,” Tony says. “Learning from
previous projects assists in delivering
a better built form.”
The influences that have shaped the
Loft 38 can be traced further back,
to even before the start of Tony’s
career. Inspired by classical masters
in design, Tony – like many of his
architecture colleagues – looks back
in time to find knowledge and
solutions that can be applied today.
“I have not researched any design
philosophies in particular,” he says.
“However I have enjoyed reading
and using techniques from the old
masters such as the Italian Architect
Andrea Palladio… Their use of scale,
proportion and materials has had
significant influence in my built form
and appreciation of space and volume.
“Further, I have admired and been
inspired by the great Japanese
Architect Tadao Ando who has
shown there are no boundaries
working in small spaces. I admire
his creative use of natural light and
structures that follow natural forms of
the landscape, rather than disturbing
the landscape by making it conform to
the constructed space of a building.”
Lessons from these classic masters
wash around in Tony’s head as he
sketches on his office’s rolls and rolls
of butter paper, and then takes his
ideas through the usual rigmarole of
applications, approvals, tenders and
construction. The biggest and most
important part of that process, says
Tony, is communication with his client.
“Over the years I have learnt to ask
the right questions,” he says. “many of
us know what we want, however find
it difficult to articulate exactly our
needs to an architect or designer.”
From sketches on paper, to the home
you live in – every design idea is
carefully considered, thought through,
questioned and re-thought until a
great solution, like those in the Loft 38,
become a reality.
Tony Zappia – “Learning from previous projects assists in delivering a better built form.”
THE POWER OF THE PEDAL A group of cyclists appear on the horizon at Nuriootpa.
After riding a punishing 104km in just one day,
their legs ache and they know they’ll be in for more of
the same on tomorrow’s similarly lengthy trip – but all
of them are smiling.
It was early afternoon when more than four hundred oddly
elated bike riders arrived at the barossa Valley Tourist Park
on Saturday November 1, all having ridden the same route
for the same reason. These cyclists were raising money for
cancer research at the Flinders medical Centre Foundation
as part of the Lightsview Ride to Conquer Cancer.
The 2013 event raised $1.6 million for the Foundation,
and this money will be used to fund research by Flinders
Centre for Innovation in Cancer staff. Researchers began
applying for grants from the funding pool as soon as the
fundraised amount was announced.
Flinders medical Centre Foundation events manager
Deb Palmer says the amazing fundraising efforts are just
the start of how 2013’s cyclists are helping the cause.
“Engaging the local community is critical to fundraising as
they become our voice and play a vital role in promoting
the important projects that we are working to support,” she
says. “They enable us to broadcast our message at the local
level – to the coffee shops, to the hairdressers, into class
rooms and businesses.”
The 2013 Lightsview Ride to Conquer Cancer was
supercharged by a new partnership between the event and
Lightsview. As naming sponsor of the event, Lightsview
raised more than $200,000 to help cancer research.
The partnership between the Ride and Lightsview came
about organically after Lightsview’s project director Alan
miller took part in a different fundraising event.
“The wonderful Alan miller from CIC participated in the
Lands End to John o’Groats Cancer Cycle Challenge for the
FmC Foundation in June 2013,” says Deb. “This 1600km
challenge over 14 days enabled Alan to learn about the
research and hospital projects that we support at Flinders.
Upon returning home, Juliette Robinson, our marketing
Coordinator and fellow Lands End participant, invited Alan

place in December 2014, and will coincide with that
year’s event

Lightsview’s support has an extra element not seen in
any other state’s Ride to Conquer Cancer sponsorship. For
the 2014 event Lightsview have partnered with Rendition
Homes to develop and sell a specially-designed house, with
all profits going to the Flinders medical Centre Foundation.
Rendition Homes managing Director Wayne Fazzalari says
the company will have a premium house designed and
built in Lightsview’s Waterford precinct ready to be sold
in conjunction with the 2014 event.
“It’s been designed by prominent Adelaide architect
Tony Gianonne of Tectvs architects and it’s an edgy design,”
he says. “It’s been designed to take into consideration
two frontages – on the street and on the waterfront –
with an outdoor-indoor living environment which is
also dual fronted.”
A good view for a good cause.

Simon’s approach to food is straightforward. He believes
cooking is a simple process that should be used to
best exhibit the flavour of good produce, and that the best
produce is grown as naturally as possible.
After years spent around food, Simon has found that
understanding how it is grown can entirely change how
a person views cooking and eating. When working in
commercial kitchens, he would take his colleagues to meet
the growers on their farms and would see a radical change
in their behaviour afterward.
“you really respect the food, I think, when you see how
much work goes into it,” he says. “you start to really
appreciate the difference between something supposedly
good because it’s a trend and something that really is
good for the flavour.”
Everyone can get closer to their food by growing a few little
things at home. Lightsview’s community garden initiative
helps residents learn about growing edible plants in even
the smallest of spaces. With equipment supplied by Urban
Sprout and tutorials from magic Harvest, a community
vegetable patch near the Urban Lights Café serves as a
practice ground for green thumbs. The successes of the
SEASONAL APPETITE
“If you’re not going to eat it don’t plant it,” says renowned chef Simon bryant. “That’s why you plant it – so you can eat it!”
community garden show people what could be possible
in their own spaces – whether it be an apartment balcony
or a bigger garden like that of the metricon Sentosa where
Simon prepared this dish.
While there is always plentiful advice out there about
gardening, Simon says the most important thing is to enjoy
the process.
“I don’t want gardening to become a burden,” he says.
“It should always be a pleasure.”
“I never grow things like broccoli, cauliflower or kale for
more than two years running in the same spot because
in my garden that’s just asking for white flies! So I am
mindful of rotating what I plant and when I’m feeling
really lazy I just plant lentils or broad beans. by putting in
a nitrogen fixing crop like beans or pulses it gives you a bit
of an excuse to have a break from the garden – because
they are so easy to grow – all while you’re treating the soil
without chemicals.”

INGREDIENTS
½ cup small green “French style”
lentils* (or substitute with any small
skin-on lentil)
¼ cup quinoa* seeds (not flakes)
soaked for 30 minutes and rinsed
until water runs clear
¼ cup amaranth* (optional)
8 zucchini flowers
1 each green and yellow zucchini
cut into long thin strips or “ribbons”
(a mandolin will do this easily)
2 cups assorted heirloom tomatoes
chopped any old how (ie a mad
mix of whatever you can get your
hands on)
½ bunch flat leaf parsley roughly
chopped and randomly picked
½ bunch basil
2 lemons zested and juiced
250g halloumi cheese
120ml extra virgin olive oil
Salt flakes and cracked pepper
mETHOD
Put lentils in 2 litre pot with 3 cups
water, bring to simmer and cook 15
minutes, add quinoa, cook another
15 minutes until quinoa has broken
a little and most of the water has
been absorbed. Drain, season and
set aside.
meanwhile heat up a grill plate or
a heavy fry pan, grill the halloumi
on both sides until “smokey” and
coloured, remove, cool and rip up
into bite-sized pieces.
Lightly oil and season the zucchini
strips and grill until coloured.
make a dressing with remaining
olive oil and lemon juice, a big pinch
of salt and cracked pepper.
If using amaranth, pre-heat a large
heavy based pan over a medium to
high heat for a few minutes, chuck
the amaranth in to “toast” with lid
on and shake/slide vigorously (so it
doesn’t burn) for about 2 minutes
as it pops. It will carry on like pop
corn so don’t take the lid off or you
will have popped amaranth all over
the place. Remove from heat and tip
into bowl when it has all doubled
in size.
Place lentil and quinoa mix on the
plate, dress with half the dressing,
top with zucchini ribbons, tomato
and halloumi. Finally separate a few
random petals of zucchini flowers
and scatter over, drizzle remaining
dressing over, sprinkle with popped
amaranth if using and more salt
flakes, parsley, lemon zest and
cracked pepper.
This salad makes a great side
dish to some lamb chops or a cold
roast chicken.
*Australian “fresh green” style lentils, amaranth and quinoa seeds are available in the health food aisle of good supermarkets or in health food shops.

THE APARTmENT ON OUR STREET
w hile the old adage of location, location, location
will never lose its ring in the housing game,
it is being joined by a new catch-cry that should prove
just as enduring.
modern buyers are beginning to see that lifestyle, lifestyle,
lifestyle is just as important as location when choosing
their home. As a result, the apartment – once viewed
by Australians as only suitable for short-term living – is
becoming a first-class choice. The low maintenance
benefits of apartments and the close community ties
fostered by high-density living situations are the driving
forces behind the change in attitude.
A recent report from the Property Council of Australia
(SA), Adelaide City Council and Renewal SA, Apartment
Living in Adelaide, showed that more than 60 per cent of
apartment dwellers chose to live in that kind of housing
because of the associated lifestyle, with many highlighting
the time saved from not having to deal with gardens as a
positive attribute.
This trend follows a model long-established internationally
which is also beginning to appear along Australia’s eastern
seaboard. Suburbs such as New york’s satellite brooklyn have
always bustled with apartment blocks and, as Adelaide’s CbD
becomes more populated, the make-up of our housing stock
will begin to mimic these famous outposts.
Lightsview’s apartments team a good location – less than
8km from the city – with the low-maintenance lifestyle,
and add an extra dimension – good design.
A 2013 report authored by strategic consultancy Hudson
Howells shows that people considering apartment living
prioritise privacy, natural light, access to open space and
a tranquil atmosphere when choosing their property.
The new apartments being released by Lightsview this
year will intermingle seamlessly with the other housing
in the area. While there are many diverse aspects to each
apartment, they all have one thing in common – innovative
design that puts human needs at the very top of the
priority list. The low-rise, four storey apartment buildings
will complement the scale of the adjoining community
and add, rather than dominate the streetscape.
Only four apartments feature on each floor, with 14 total
for each building. Penthouse level apartments will feature
impressive vaulted ceilings adding a sense of space, while
all enjoy private balconies and secure lock-up garaging at
ground level.
The emphasis on design is also important in helping to
create the rich community atmosphere many people
considering apartment living hope for. Nicely appointed
communal spaces, such as lobbies and interior courtyards,
as well as the many reserves and bike paths running
through Lightsview, encourage people to move across
the community and give residents a chance to interact.
These design innovations top-off apartments that are
already the perfect blend of location and lifestyle, and
there’s not much more you could ask for in a home.
The first release of apartments happens in early 2014.

A SCHOOL OF THOUGHT
For more than two years the site of
the Ross Smith Secondary School
has stood quietly abandoned along
Hampstead Road, but redevelopment
by Lightsview is set to give it new life.
The Ross Smith school was
amalgamated into the Roma mitchell
Secondary College campus just down
the road in 2011, but the buildings are
yet to be re-purposed. Lightsview’s
plans are to make the area live and
breathe in a way that is useful to the
new neighbourhood’s residents.
“What we tried to do is actually create
two different focal points – we’ve
created two anchors in the Lightsview
community,” says michael Visintin
of Design IQ – an urban planner who
works closely with Lightsview.
“There’s the town centre, then this
school site is the more community-
focussed area.”
The plans for the site include a
community centre, wetland gardens,
a small retail precinct that could
house home-maker stores and a
child care centre.
michael believes these facilities
will attract people from all over
Lightsview, and encourage community
members to move through the
neighbourhood on the many purpose-
built bike and walking paths. Also
incorporated onto the old school site
will be more housing, bringing balance
and diversity to the overall design.
Several of the planned features serve
dual purposes. The wetlands, which
michael says will be a “beautiful,
functional reserve space in its own
right”, will also perform a stormwater
management function as it catches
overflow during heavy periods of rain.
A vision for transformation – artists’ perspective.
The latest addition to Lightsview’s
footprint will include the now
familiar diversity of housing too, from
apartments and terraces through to
larger allotments for detached homes.
“The same urban design principles
that have worked so well elsewhere
in Lightsview will be applied here,
and that includes plenty of walking
and cycling trails and easy linkages
throughout.”
This sense of connectivity is a
recurring theme on the school site.
As well as hoping to open Lightsview
to Hampstead Rehabilitation Centre,
michael believes the childcare centre
and retail precinct will provide a
perfect linkage between Lightsview
and Hampstead Road.
“This is completing the puzzle,” says
michael. “There was a key road joining
Hampstead Road and Lightsview that
basically ran through a paddock – this
actually creates the urban form of
Lightsview and the community of
Lightsview right up to Hampstead Road
and makes that final connection.”
bUILDING FOR OPPORTUNITyA fter World War II, Australia’s population boomed,
and the construction industry could barely keep up.
The country was flooded with a fresh wave of immigrants
and children were being born, growing up and buying their
own houses at an unbelievable rate.
Housing at this time was clustered around essential
services. Often, towns were built by the rail line; the town
centre bordered the train stations and homes fanned out
a little from the main street. This type of neighbourhood
fostered happy communities full of everyone from blue-
collar tradies, newly-arrived immigrant shopkeepers to
white-collar professionals who made the train trip to the
city every morning.
but, as Australia’s population kept growing and new
industries popped up, artificially engineered housing
became a necessity. Whole suburbs, such as Elizabeth in
SA’s north, were built especially to accommodate specific
groups of people like the car manufacturing workers who
would work at the Holden plant. Social housing for families
and people in need was also built in clusters.
Such measures led to a breakdown of the traditional
community make-up, and created enclaves throughout
the state where opportunity was limited by bad access
to education and other community facilities. This was
an issue seen internationally, as reported by the USA’s
Kirwan Institute.
“Neighbourhood racial and economic segregation is also
segregation from opportunities critical to quality of life,
financial stability, and social advancement,” says the
Institute when summarising research in the field. “Isolation
and disinvestment threaten not only individuals and their
families, but entire communities.”
Lightsview is leading Australia in re-dressing this trend
by returning to the highly-diverse neighbourhoods of
the mid-20th century. Within ten minutes drive of major
cultural attractions like the Adelaide Oval (because there’s
nothing like beer and cricket to help people make friends)
and the Festival Centre, it is the perfect home-base for a
vast array of people.
The houses at Lightsview include award-winning affordable
homes located alongside multi-million dollar properties,
as well as planned apartment buildings that will contain
homes at a range of price points. While building this
mixture of high quality homes opens the neighbourhood
to people of varied incomes, Lightsview also makes sure
everyone living in the area feels engaged and welcome
in the community by running free events. These include
weekly markets, regular outdoor cinema nights and, most
recently, a huge Summer Festival full of rides, food stalls
and fun activities.
Just chatting to people as they came and went at the
organic market was enough evidence for anyone to see that
Lightsview’s approach is working. People of all backgrounds
and incomes wandered through the stalls, and as they did,
many stopped for a chat with their neighbours.

and Robert Capones are building a second
home in Lightsview
“I think we were in the second group
of residents to move into Lightsview,”
says Leah. “This was our first home,
so it was easy and they had all the
first home buyers grants and things
available here. Now we’re thinking
about building our second home in
Lightsview too. We love it here.”
Lyn Metcalf and her son Felix are
long-term locals
“I’m in Northgate,” Lyn says while
looking through the Lightsview
Organic market stalls. “We’ve lived
here for 10 years and it’s been really
great to see this stuff popping up.
We ride our bikes down to come to
the market on weekends.”

partner Tim says the area supports
her shift-work lifestyle
“It’s quite handy to the city and I
feel safe coming home at 2am,” says
Davina. “It’s just quiet. There are some
places where it would be scary coming
home at that time. my brother lives
in Lightsview, so that’s really nice to
have him close too.”
Saying Hello to Lightsview
EUROPEAN INSPIRATION
the Terrace 344 has come on a
long journey – almost half way
around the world – to bring a new
standard of home design to Australia.
Two years ago Lightsview’s project
director Alan miller undertook a study
tour to see some of the best housing
throughout Europe. He visited several
countries and countless homes, but
there was one that stopped him in
his tracks.
After being led through Amsterdam’s
progressive Oostelijk Havengebied
(Eastern Docklands) development
that had been established in the ’90s,
Alan arrived in one of the area’s most
unique neighbourhoods – borneo-
Sporenburg. Here, he was shown
through a home that immediately
inspired him.
“I was impressed by the fact that
it was actually built on all four
boundaries,” says Alan. “It occupied
the whole site. I knew that was
something we had been able to get
successfully approved for Lightsview
on our site. It sparked my interest that
10-15 years ago they were doing things
in Amsterdam that we were still
struggling to get approved in Adelaide.
An artist’s impression of Lightsview’s Terrace 344.
15
The progressive Amsterdam neighbourhood of Borneo-Sporenburg.
“When I went into this house, I thought I’d need to
change some things, but something similar to this in
terms of the concept could really work at Lightsview.”
The home Alan had walked into was a three-storey
terrace house in one of Amsterdam’s most-densely
populated suburbs, but it still gave a feeling of light,
space and privacy.
Its unique design was the result of well-thought-
out planning. While the overall Eastern Docklands
development had been very successful from the
beginning, the City of Amsterdam Council could see that
too few families were moving into the area. The Council
specifically asked urban designer Adriaan Geuze to address
this problem while developing borneo-Sporenburg, but
they insisted the area must still be high density.
Adriaan’s solution was to create an almost entirely new
type of terrace home that efficiently used the land it was
built on. Traditional gardens were substituted for rooftop
gardens, balconies and courtyards. Incorporating “free
parcels” – areas where homebuyers could bring in their
own architect to design a home that fitted in with certain
guidelines – protected streetscape diversity.
Lightsview has benefited from much of the knowledge
Alan gained whilst overseas, but the Terrace 344 is the
most directly Amsterdam-inspired home the suburb
has seen so far. Alan adapted certain features for the
Australian market, but the home is conceptually aligned
with those he saw overseas.
“The Amsterdam home… had a spiral staircase at the
back of the house that got natural light down into the back
of the house,” says Alan. “Our approach was to actually
incorporate a central courtyard in the middle of the house
so you didn’t need to do that and you could get natural light
and ventilation into as many rooms as possible.”
“The other major change was the way it was constructed –
ours is totally different… because we can use lightweight
construction methods with different materials like power
panel, we can actually build these things at a much
cheaper rate.”
The combination of the innovative building methods Alan
talks about and the small land parcel the Terrace 344
requires makes the home a particularly affordable option.
built on a block of just 75m2, the Terrace 344 is a full-size,
three-bedroom, three-bathroom family home that costs
less than $400,000 – something which is almost impossible
to find elsewhere in the Australian housing market.
An innovation with its roots in Amsterdam, the Terrace
344 is sure to become an Australian classic as more and
more families discover the joy of home ownership in this
unique, architecturally-designed space.
“Our approach was to actually incorporate a central courtyard in the middle of the house so…you could get natural light and ventilation into as many rooms as possible.”
Six new homes that are now
available at Lightsview show the
depth of choice on offer in the area;
enough to suit every taste.
Renowned builder of stylish homes,
medallion, recently released two large
family homes – the two-storey Domo
and four-bedroom Urbis. both offer
contemporary features such as flexible
floor plans and a seamless relationship
between outdoor and indoor spaces.
“These homes are another step in the
direction of modern lifestyles. We’ve
seen a lot of things change over the
last five years,” says medallion Homes’
Steve Sinclair.
“Some of those things are people
becoming more discerning about
designing a home that has a feature
they want rather than taking a
generic offering… so these homes are
designed with floor plans that show
the possibilities. The second big trend
is the increased importance to people
of the outdoor – indoor interaction.”
medallion Homes believes there is a
natural relationship between their
design philosophy and Lightsview’s.
Rather than having to change their
thinking to meet Lightsview’s criteria
for diverse material use, high ceilings
and good-quality detailing, medallion
finds it happens naturally.

“We’re in sync with what Lightsview
are trying to do in creating a better
architectural offering for the exterior
look of the homes,” says Steve. “That’s
what we’ve been doing for a long time
and we feel comfortable building in
Lightsview for those reasons.”
With the Urbis’ high-end outdoor
kitchen and a floor-plan that Steve
says is like no other on display; and
the Domo’s wine cellar and library –
these medallion homes in Lightsview’s
Waterford display village will no doubt
attract a lot of interest.
Also in the large family home market
is a new offering from Felmeri – the
cover star for this issue of Viewpoint.
built over three levels in a style
Felmeri bills as full of “opulence
and luxury”, the three-bedroom
home features a lap pool, spa and
rooftop garden. As the only house in
Lightsview with a lift included, it’s
worth a look for a ride alone.
Showing the diversity of housing
choices at Lightsview are three new
terrace products that are designed
by Longridge and Sterling Homes.
Longridge’s Terrace 265 and Terrace
270, along with a new Sterling Homes
offering demonstrate the evolution of
terrace design.
While terraces were on the market
a decade ago, few home-builders
were investing time and energy into
smart design. Now these houses are
becoming more and more popular,
and designs are being influenced
by world-class standards. All three
of these homes include a c-shaped
courtyard in the middle of the home
to let light and air circulate through
every room. And smart floor plan
layout means that while these homes
take up little land and are more
affordable they still offer everything
a modern family needs – with each
house boasting three-bedrooms and
at least two bathrooms.
