Commercial Outdoor Space Design
Commercial space rates being what they are these
days means that if youre a developer, an
architect or commercial designer, youre going to
want to maximise the potential use of as much
space as possible. You want to create a space
that doubles as much as inside on a wet day as
it does outside on a glorious one.

5 things to consider
6
1. Gravitational pull
No, not of the outer space kind, but rather the
kind that is so visually appealing, people are
pulled towards it. When delivering a commercial
outdoor space design, what youre really aiming
to create, is a space that when people see it, it
feels right and they naturally gravitate to it.
What makes a space feel right? Natural light,
airiness and visual height. Having a roof that
doubles as a window to the sky can help you
achieve all these things.

2. Flexibility
You want your design to create flexibility for
its current or soon-to-be owners/leasees, but you
also want it to be robust enough that it can
withstand change and evolutions in use. Consider
an open/closed roof, adding a glass wall, or
taking one down and letting the outdoors in. A
flexible design is more likely to remain a modern
commercial outdoor space design.

3. Orientation solar amenity
Now sometimes you get no say in where an outdoor
space is going to be located at design stage, and
sometimes not. But obviously youre aiming to
maximise your spaces solar amenity. After all,
unless youre building a wine cellar or rooftop
cinema (it could happen), youre probably not
going to be aiming to keep the space as dark and
cold as possible. As in point 1, you want light,
height and flexibility. So even better if your
roof could follow the light or, just in case
you are looking to screen a movie or deliver an
intimate environment, you can dim the light
as required.

4. Solar safety
Speaking of solar amenity, we Aussies love our
outdoors and glorious sunshine. But did you know
that Australia ranks 2nd in the world for
melanoma a deadly form of skin cancer? So you
want your commercial outdoor space design to be a
space where you can let the light in, but block
harmful UV rays in the heat of the day is
becoming more of a consideration. And especially
when youre designing for dining opportunities.
Big floppy hats are an essential at the beach,
but not so much when youre dining with friends,
who would like to see you, not your hat.

5. Protections from potential outdoor hazards
When youre creating a commercial outdoor space
design within a space dictated by surrounding
flora, you have to consider what that might mean
for patrons of said space. Now, most people like
a tree or two in the vicinity, but they dont
want leaf litter, Jacaranda flowers or bits of
tree falling onto them every few minutes (or bird
excrement either). Nor do they want to dine to
the strains of those delightful nesting Ibises.
Much better if your design can tune that out when
required and reinstate the outdoors when theyre
done.
