Master Planning Strategies & Design Trends
MASTER PLANNING STRATEGIES Leisure facilities must be enticing. They must be comfortable places for people of all ages and all cultures to relax and enjoy their recreation activities. They should encourage participation as a means to encourage community integration, well-being and social cohesion. Way-finding is crucial in welcoming participation. The building entry must be identifiable from pedestrian pathways, the street and from parking areas. Once inside the facility, the reception or control point must be easily found, and it’s important that the facilities and programs on offer are visible from the foyer. Patrons should be able to intuitively move towards their leisure program or change facilities without the need to ask staff or refer to complex directional signage systems. Wet, dry and ancillary components of a facility are located with consideration of the intended operational / management model, with capability to control patron access to different components if required. Aquatic halls are orientated for solar gain, and are planned to allow some degree of separation between active leisure spaces and more passive well-being and program spaces. Outdoor aquatic components are located for solar access and for protection from prevailing breezes.
AQUATIC FACILITY DESIGN TRENDS Perhaps the most notable trend in leisure facility design is the importance of connectivity to the community. Increasingly, facilities are being planned and located in urban centres with good access to and from other community facilities, and commercial and retail centres. They are being collocated with other services, including health facilities, libraries, entertainment venues, retail and accommodation. They are becoming community hubs, offering social integration opportunities and building social capital. Within facilities, demand for leisure water provision is growing rapidly. Traditionally, learn-to-swim programs and dry fitness have been revenue drivers for community facilities, but increasingly, participation is now being driven by aquatic play grounds and super slides. Change facilities are evolving to reflect these trends with increased provision of family change villages. Community facilities are now competing with Health Clubs, offering a higher standard of programs, service and accommodation, particularly for dry fitness. There is a growing movement towards wellness / wellbeing, with the emergence of spa facilities including suites for massage, physiotherapy, and the like. The contemporary leisure facility now offers more than just a place to swim, they are now a destination; a place to gather and to socialise. This is being reflected in an increased attention to facility comfort and design, where comfortable cafes and meeting spaces are becoming the norm. Increasingly, facilities are designed to provide access to all ages and to all cultures. Facilities must be flexible to ensure capacity to offer new programs as they develop. It is also critical that future expansion be considered – our recent work at Kew Recreation Centre in Melbourne was the fourth expansion of the facility in 16 years. Aquatic facilities, particularly indoor aquatic facilities, consume a considerable amount of energy and water. Implementation of sustainability initiatives is therefore critical. This has a twofold benefit in that a sound sustainability strategy will reduce consumption and emissions while reducing operating costs.

ANNETTE KELLERMAN AQUATIC CENTRE
KYNETON SPORTS & AQUATIC CENTRE
CLIENT: LOCATION: VALUE: ROLE:
CLIENT: LOCATION: VALUE: ROLE:
Marrickville Council Sydney, NSW $18 million Architecture
The striking built form of the new Annette Kellerman Aquatic Centre is inspired by the saw tooth rooflines of the local vernacular, and terracotta clad trapezoid wall elements that provide strong connections with the park topography. It is designed to accommodate a pop up boom, (an inflatable platform) that divides the pool into two halves to allow flexibility for swimming training. The new café opens out with generous vistas of the park providing excellent opportunities for the pool users and general public alike. dwp|suters design incorporates many strategies to conserve energy and water including water reuse, passive cooling and trigeneration engine and photovoltaic solar panels. Water harvesting is achieved by capturing roof water and storing in below ground water tanks. The saw tooth roofline creates a perfect opportunity to incorporate high level operable louvres, which are connected to the centre’s Building Management System and automatically operate when the outside air temperature reaches a comfortable level.
Macedon Ranges Shire Council Melbourne, VIC $9.5 million Architecture
For this major redevelopment of an existing mixed use sports facility dwp|suters’ sport + leisure team designed the addition of an indoor 25m pool, program pools and associated facilities, together with a new café, entry foyer and offices. A redefined circulation space was introduced to form the core of the redevelopment. Access to all indoor facilities is designed to flow seamlessly from the new central foyer space. The visual connection is maintained from the entry because it is important to generating interest and a sense of activity. The layout allows views from the reception area through the foyer to the pool hall, squash courts, gymnasium and multi-purpose room, to the sports courts beyond. The building form and detailing borrows from the eclectic mixture of existing structures on site. Specifically, the truss that forms of the ‘A-frame’ structure over the existing basketball court is replicated horizontally over the pool hall in simple form. The pool hall is bounded by glass to the north, allowing both views from the hall out to external recreation areas, as well as views from outside in; generating interest and attraction for regular users and passersby.

CLIENT: LOCATION: VALUE: ROLE:
City of Devonport Devonport, TAS $14 million Architecture
City of Canada Bay Council Sydney, NSW $6 million Architecture
Devonport Aquatic Centre project is a new aquatic and fitness centre located within the Don Reserve in Devonport, Tasmania. The new facility comprises a 25m indoor pool plus a combined leisure, learn to swim and warm water exercise pool. Completing the fitness offer are gym, program rooms, multipurpose room, swim clubrooms, wet and dry change facilities, reception, administration, retail area and cafe. The existing outdoor 50m pool and outdoor learn to swim pool are retained. dwp|suters design creates a genuinely community focused facility, which is contextual to the site and can be utilised all year round. By engaging in extensive consultation with the City of Devonport, dwp|suters approach ensures a design that meets the expectations of the stakeholders now and well into the future.
The Cabarita Swimming Complex is a major redevelopment which rejuvenates the swimming facility at Cabarita Park as a vibrant social and recreation destination. The 50m pool and concourse are upgraded and a series of new pavilions replace the original 1920s entry, change rooms and plant room. A desire to maximise views through the site to the water beyond drove preliminary planning for the new facility. The resulting viewing decks and low pavilions, separated to provide glimpses through planted voids, are a successful response to our client’s objective. Where previously the swimming complex separated Cabarita Park from the water, the relative transparency of the new facility celebrates the proximity to the water.
The design influences come from the local Don River Railway adjacent to the site, the Sawdust Bridge, and the Mersey Bluff Lighthouse which is Devonport’s most iconographic landmark. The curvilinear roofs are split to define two pavilions while still relating together as one form. The pool hall pavilion creates a large open space which connects with the existing 50m pool and the bushland beyond. The sweeping roof of the gym and entry opens the building out to the bushland to the north and extends under the pool hall pavilion to create the entry canopy.
The new pavilions include a sparkling new café, community facility, plus amenities. This series of structures is flanked to the north and the south by public viewing decks, providing unbroken views across the pools to the marina and Parramatta River. A raised timber verandah runs the entire eastern length of these pavilions, forming the main circulation spine and access connections.

HAWTHORN AQUATIC & LEISURE CENTRE CLIENT: LOCATION: VALUE: ROLE:
City of Boroondara Melbourne, VIC $27 million Architecture
dwp|suters is lead design consultant for the redevelopment of the Hawthorn Aquatic and Leisure Centre. The project is a health and fitness centre with new wet facilities including an outdoor 50m pool and an indoor warm water exercise pool. The project focuses primarily on provision of fitness and training water bodies, rather than leisure pools. The 50m pool is designed for lap swimming and semi-elite level water polo, while the warm water pool is located adjacent to consulting suites and is suitable for rehabilitation and wellness programs. The health and fitness theme is supported by the 800sqm gymnasium plus 500sqm of program space. A cafe and crèche are included to encourage socialising and ensure access for families. The use of materials and architectural form relate strongly to the local context and the sports park setting at its Grace Park location, reflecting the centre’s status as a gateway to the precinct. The two biggest environmental issues for recreational facilities are energy and water conservation. dwp|suters’ design minimises the use of both energy and water through ESD measures such as insulation to the pool shell, solar panels, high performance glazing, external shading and an integrated rainwater harvesting system. The existing pool shell wash reused as the plant room for water treatment and storage. Particular attention is paid to indoor air quality and user health by incorporating selective natural ventilation and night purging.

Wyndham City Council Melbourne, VIC $68 million Architecture
By 2026 Wyndham will have the 2nd second largest Melbourne municipal population with over 286,000 residents. To support the community of this rapidly growing municipality, this new development is an important focal point. By integrating a library, community facilities, education space and recreation areas into one location, the intention is to maximise the delivery and cross selling of services to the entire community. Co located facilities provide many advantages to councils and communities and are generally considered best practice. dwp|suters approach develops synergies between the various community infrastructure components, programs, users and management. Our methodology is very different from traditional aggregation, where unrelated facilities happen to occupy the same site. Rather, we focus on providing opportunities to introduce community groups to each other; developing an inclusive community that transcends age groups and cultural barriers; building and nourishing social capital and creating measurable triple bottom line outcomes. Plus we achieve significant savings and economies of scale by avoiding duplication of infrastructure and services like parking, utilities, amenities, management and marketing etc. The outcome maximises the service offer and leads to opportunities for greater social interaction, a feeling of involvement and fundamentally strengthened social capital.

CLIENT: LOCATION: VALUE: ROLE:
VIC Department of Education & Early Childhood Melbourne, VIC $20 million Architecture
The first of its kind in Victoria, this purpose built facility is a sports Centre of Excellence and ‘whole of life learning’ centre that can be used seven days a week, 15 hours a day, by both the school and the local community. To provide the Victorian State Government with this first elite Sports School, input was incorporated from several interested parties. Detailed planning had to articulate the desires of external partners including Victoria University, Victorian Institute of Sport, Western Bulldogs AFL Club and Maribyrnong City Council. The concept for the building is based on the idea of precognition or pre-visualisation; the notion of being in the ‘zone’, visualising that winning play, focusing on a goal or the perfect shot. As a form of spatial precognition, the design provides early spatial hints and snapshots of the moments that the elite sports star experiences the underbelly of a stadium, entering a sporting arena, the running track, the corporate box, the hall of heroes all are experiences that inform the psyche of every athlete.

This project involves the development of a Master Plan to accommodate the needs of relevant sport clubs, community groups, the local community and the City and to produce a contemporary, functional, integrated and sustainable community standard facility within an acceptable scope, budget and timeframe. Through extensive consultation, background analysis and needs analysis the Master plan will ensure better use of the existing green spaces, development of built form facilities to meet current needs and cater for future demand, resolution of existing conflicts, and reduction in maintenance costs and enhanced formal sporting spaces. This study fully explores and recommends opportunities for rationalisation, co-location and amalgamation. Of major concern to this development was the maintained operations of sporting clubs during construction. Our experience has shown a major decline in the sporting groups if facilities are not available. This should be discussed with end users to strategies how to keep members involved during the development period. It was noted there may be some compensation to clubs, if this time can be reduced or mitigated it would greatly help the viability if this project.

Aquadome is an iconic landmark and a recipient of the 2010 Be Active Recreation & Sport Industry Award for Best Facility. In response to community demand for first class facilities, Hames Sharley and dwp|suters were engaged by Council for a major redevelopment. Our brief included refurbishment of the existing 50m pool, a new indoor 25m program and leisure pool, new spa, waterslide and 650sqm gym. Working closely with our clients, we developed a highly efficient planning model to meets stakeholder and operational requirements. These include disability access to all pools, staged construction to allow use of pools during construction and flexibility for expansion to the crèche and the health & fitness areas. Our design for the redeveloped Aquadome unifies the complex under a simple, folded roofing and walling device that references Playford’s important industrial heritage. Simultaneously, our architectural solution promotes cross ventilation, internal daylight and opportunities for many ‘green’ initiatives. Among them, 150sqm of solar panels which generate 15kw of power, aquifer storage recovery of water for toilet flushing and a building management system for efficient lighting and temperature control. Functional areas are made visible and welcoming to promote the centre’s attractions to the community. Since its redevelopment, our client reports a dramatic increase in participation, with increased family usage (with over 30% of members on a family membership) and a 50% increase in senior programs.

NOBLE PARK AQUATIC CENTRE, VIC
TYPE: Aquatic Centre CLIENT: City of Greater Dandenong VALUE: $22 million ROLE IN PROJECT: Lead consultant from inception to completion. Our role through construction was a partial role. PROCUREMENT METHOD: Traditional procurement, the project was tendered under a modified version of AS2124
Noble Park, within the City of Greater Dandenong, is home to the most ethnically diverse community in Melbourne. Engaging the whole community is our clients’ highest priority. Their vision is for a recreation destination where different cultures can meet, relax and socialise. dwp|suters achieved this objective through careful space planning. The congregational areas are strategically located with optimal adjacencies. The cafe, central foyer, breakout spaces and multipurpose rooms are designed to appeal to a range of user groups, interests and abilities. Cultural sensitivities are thoughtfully catered for. An operable screen installed to the indoor pool, a first in Australia, ensures seclusion for groups whose culture demands privacy when bathing. This strong design focus on providing spaces for social gathering and interaction, along with creating flexible, enjoyable sports and fitness spaces has become the premise behind the title of the project, ‘More Than Just a Pool’. The facility has a new outdoor heated 50m pool, indoor program pool, splash pads, aquaplay equipment and a rejuvenated water slide. The outdoor pool and wet play equipment are protected by an expansive tensile PTFE structure that complements the geometry of the main building. The vibrant colour theme inspired by beach towels, umbrellas and beach toys introduces typical Australian Beach and bathing culture. In addition to the aquatic components are outdoor basketball courts, grass volleyball court, picnic BBQ facilities and dry play equipment to foster social and cultural interaction.

2.12 Green Initiatives Sustainability is much broader than a GBCA assessment. It is a holistic attitude that speaks of both social and environmental sustainability. ESD informs all aspects of the design process from urban scale master planning through to the subtleties and nuances of a particular place or community. Facilities that positively engage with a ‘green’ attitude will benefit in several key ways: ongoing costs, life cycle costs, recycling costs and ultimately a building that is socially sustainable and reflects the aspirations of the local community.
CASE STUDY - NOBLE PARK AQUATIC CENTRE A recent example where we have achieved our client’s gas, electricity and water design targets is Noble Park Aquatic Centre redevelopment, Victoria. This new facility replaced the old Noble Park pool. Gas, electricity and water design targets for the new facility were established by extrapolating the performance of the old facility on a per square meter basis, accounting for the changed mix of indoor and outdoor space. The design targets were determined to be in line with best practice performance for aquatic centres in Melbourne when the facility was designed and the results are still impressive today. The targeted improvements were as follows: • • •
Water target: 25% improvement on the old normalised efficiency Electrical target: 25% reduction against the old facility on a per sqm basis Gas target: 10% increase against the old facility on a per sqm basis
The target for the new facility represents a 10% saving over previous gas usage which was already low as the old pools were not heated and therefore were not high in gas usage. Note that the new pools are heated. The efficiency works through the use of cogeneration where part of the heating load normally provided by gas fired boilers is supplemented by waste heat from the cogeneration unit that also produces electricity. Thirty solar hot water panels also help reduce the use of gas. The actual measured performance of the operating facility is as follows: • • •
48
Actual Water Usage: 26% improvement, slightly lower usage than the predicted value Actual Electrical Usage: 22% reduction, slightly higher usage than the predicted value Actual Natural Gas Usage: 17% reduction, lower usage than the predicted targeted value
HAMES SHARLEY & dwp|suters
The above Information has been taken from an Energy Monitoring Report issued to Council in June 2013. The data within the report has been derived from the facility Building Management System or BMS. In order to meet environmental targets a lot of work also goes into monitoring the onsite activities of the Builder and their subcontractors to ensure compliance with detailed Inspection Test Reports (ITPs). In our specifications for aquatics centres we ask the Builder to provide 12 months of enhanced building tuning on top of standard commissioning of the building services. In other words, the systems are commissioned as per design and then tweaked even further to maximise gas, energy and water efficiency. Bimonthly energy reports are then issued to the consultants for review and for recommended adjustments to the system. This is a best practice approach and involves consultants who are more hands on in their approach. The water usage figure was achieved by converting the old 50m pool shell into a massive rainwater storage tank with a net capacity of 780,000 litres. This grey water system incorporates air scourers on pool filters, high efficiency filtration and automatic pool dosing controls to optimise water quality and reduce the frequency of pool backwashing. In real terms this saves 2,000,000 litres of water per annum compared to a business as usual facility without the above measures.
FEBRUARY 2014
Sustainability initiatives are explored during the design process in each of our projects. It is important that a breadth of opportunities are explored in order to determine which are most appropriate for a specific site.
• •
Core initiatives explored as a starting point for aquatic facilities include the following:-
• • • • •
• • • • • • • •
cogeneration / trigeneration for combined heat and power generation; energy sub-metering; Variable Speed Drive (VSD) pumps allowing pumping to be wound back or ramped up to suit demand; heat recovery from pool water and pool hall environment; solar water heating for showers and pre-warming of pool water; solar PV; pool blankets to reduce heat loss and evaporation; low backwash filtering (pre-coat) to reduce water consumed for back-washing;
•
leak detection; learning resources in the form of display screens demonstrating performance of sustainability initiatives; rainwater harvesting for flushing, pool top-up, irrigation, and the like; grey water re-use for flushing, irrigation and the like; pool shell insulation; natural ventilation; shading; waste minimisation / recycling through construction and operation.

2.13 Cost Management
Like all projects clients will be seeking “value for money” with an expectation that limited resources will maximise service delivery with minimal expense on new building fabric. As a consequence, the cost plan will require ongoing management of design scope and market cost rates to ensure that the project remains within budget. Any client/user-initiated design changes during the design process will need to be identified and costed to reflect their impact on the overall budget. Cost increases due to escalation of trade costs will need to be monitored against the market regularly to ensure fluctuations are within the escalation allowances. The importance of maintenance, facilities management and energy consumption cannot be overstated. The projected life cycle costs of each need to be analysed and understood when making decisions regarding building layout, materials durability, thermal performance and environmental quality. On appointment, Hames Sharley would recommend that the Quantity Surveyorprovide a briefing identifying all concerns, issues and opportunities within the cost plan. This should be informed by review and advice from all design disciplines. Our aim as the appointed Architect will be to optimise cost management by working closely with the Quantity Surveyor. Our methodology and approach are summarised as follows: • •
•
Encourage the Quantity Surveyor to attend regular the design meetings; We ensure the Quantity Surveyor is kept informed on all major design changes and scope changes that are influenced from the client. We request the Quantity Surveyor to provide cost estimates back at regular intervals within the overall design process so there isn’t any surprises.
On all our projects that we have worked with Rider Levett Bucknall and others, we encourage the Quantity Surveyor to sit next to us at design meetings and to put their opinions forward as we put

our design opinions to ensure design outcomes marry up with the budget expectations. Examples of where our approach realised significant benefits for our client include • • •

Through the implementation of the methods above, the project was completed successfully under budget and within the allocated timeframe during a period where Western Australia was experiencing heavy cost pressures within the industry. The success of this project was a result of Hames Sharley: • Communicating and working closely with the client on establishing a realistic brief from the start; and • Implementing excellent cost control management.
FEBRUARY 2014
2.14 Cost Effective Procurement Method
For this project we will work with the Councils and the Quantity Surveyor to confirm the best procurement method. For the Fleurieu Regional Aquatic Centre project, Hames Sharley and dwp|suters would advocate the use of a Design & Construct (D&C) with a Guarantee Maximum Price (GMP) method of procurement. We worked on a similar process for the Michael Long Learning & Leadership Centre project. The process we undertook involved: • •
• •
to agree with scope of project with the client while we work with them at 60% documents tender out to a contractor. We tender out based on those documents we the contractors on the margins and preliminaries, their staff and experience on these types of projects appoint the contractor complete the remainder of the documentation (60%-100%) with the contractor on board in a D&C manner but working to achieve a GMP of on the agreed project value.
This ensures that the critical scope of works are agreed to and within 60% documents and also puts the project in touch with reality and the market at the key times to ensure that there scope of works are delivered on budget Hames Sharley and dwp|suters havr experience working on numerous projects of similar scope for Councils and government entities based on a D&C method. Some examples include: • • •
