Design Checklist
- Entrances contribute positively to the streetscape and building facade design
Entrances provide functional and safe common areas.
Overview
A building’s entrance is the threshold between the exterior and interior, it contributes to the overall identity of the development and plays an important role in the impression and experience formed by visitors. An entrance may lead into a common entry foyer, directly into the private space of an apartment, or into a retail/commercial tenancy.
Entrances should be considered as part of an entry sequence, this is the experience of visiting the site, from the point of entry onto the site, to the reaching of the destination within the site.
