Juniper Rowethorpe Masterplan
Our team lead a combined architectural and landscape consortium with Marion Fredriksson Design Consulting to develop a Spatial Masterplan for Rowethorpe Village – an Aged Care development located on a 120,000 m2 site in Bentley, Perth.
The site was established as a Uniting Church retirement village and has since developed to accommodate over three hundred residents in a range of residential accommodation units and types. The village is notable for the quality of its established landscape character, which both operators and residents have identified as a key aspect and attribute of the village. A series of guiding design principles were established to drive the project, with a focus on people and community.
The project incorporates a combination of Independent Living Units and Residential Care Facilities, medical and administrative facilities, as well key community spaces and amenities. A new village centre is proposed in the south-eastern quadrant of the site immediately adjacent to a large-scale care facility planned for the precinct.
