Based on the discussion held (online), and the submission made at the formal stage, the following observations are to be complied with:

a) The Commission observed that the project is at the formal stage, but the submission lacked any existing site photographs. The architect during online discussion shared a few site photographs showing that demolition activity is currently taking place there. The Commission advised the architect to submit a sufficient number of updated uncut photos of the site so that it is possible to comprehend the current state of the site and any tree-cutting information.

b) Furthermore, the design includes five independent residential units, however the vehicular drop-off at the +300 level has not been efficiently planned. Considering the fragmented green spaces in such a vast property, it was proposed to transform the drop-off area into a huge consolidated green space, which would also add to the overall visual & aesthetics of the complex.  A softer driveway with grass pavers where possible could also be considered. 

c) Additionally, there is an overall level difference of 3.6 m between the front set-back and the side set-back area, but this has not been anticipated or presented thoughtfully since the proposal is at the formal stage it needs to be elucidated with appropriate details, sections, and views etc. for judicious consideration of the Commission. Because rear-side parking in the basement looks to be impractical in the existing layout, the entire basement area, including the position of required parking arrangements, shall be relooked at and a revised parking plan with proper labelling, levels, location of ramps etc. shall be resubmitted for the review of the Commission.
