A more rigorous massing study of the location, clearly shows that in 2 blocks from the site no building is higher than 12-14m, which one more time confirms the top constraint i defined previously.

Site three is 16m in width which will be a major consideration for the design of the building having in mind the 12m restriction of the front façade. The neighbouring buildings are 8m and 12m in height, so this will be the top constraint of the proposed design.

King Street, Newtown, Sydney is a vivid area with a rich history and diverse culture. I chose site three, which can be approached either from the north or from the south by bus (373, 412) by foot (the area is famous for its shops, restaurants and caffees).
