continuity of a campus style development of individual pavilion type buildings based mainly on orthogonal plan form geometry aligned with the north‑north‑east orientation of the Main Pedestrian Spine. Variations in this site planning and built form geometry may be approved to meet specific functional needs, subject to overall compliance with the detailed conditions of planning, design and development of this Precinct Code.
       * Functional relationship between uses must be considered while siting buildings/facilities on the site and should be in accordance with the 'Specific' detailed conditions of planning, design and development of this Precinct Code. Figure 134 shows the spatial relationship among various uses/facilities in the core area of the AIS and provides guidelines for possible new development or development extensions within the area.

Sporting intent
The development of the AIS Bruce campus will reflect the emerging needs of our national sporting organisations, peak national sporting bodies, state institutes and academies of sport, Federal and State sporting departments and the sport business sector. In achieving this, the AIS facilities will be recognised as world‑class Centres of Excellence.

Building Design, Materials and Colour
Buildings should correspond to the architectural language of existing adjacent development for their external expression in terms of choice of materials, detailing, construction logic, structural expression and scale of elements. Some variation in the architectural design may be considered ‑ especially where the design expresses the specific function of the building, but such variation should be within the limits of an overall consistency.
Wherever possible, external building materials should adhere to the existing range of types, finishes and colours, in order to encourage visual coherence between buildings. Sympathetic variations in colours and materials between individual buildings may be considered. However, strongly defined contrasts in colour of architectural features should generally be avoided.
Within these parameters, more prominent design and colour treatment may be considered for special facilities (such as visitor arrival, reception, exhibition, display and signage facilities) where increased visual emphasis is integral to their function.
All external façades must be of high quality durable low maintenance materials. Highly reflective external materials should not be used.

Landscape design
Landscaping of the site should be in accordance with a comprehensive landscape plan prepared for the site which aims to ensure the following:
       * Consistency in the site landscape design should be maintained.
       * Wherever possible significant existing vegetation should be retained and blended with the landscape design. Care should be taken during construction to protect the trees to be retained.
       * Landscaping should provide screens, as appropriate, against the large masses of buildings and paved areas to minimise their visual impact on the adjacent areas, and especially the open spaces.
       * External paving materials, fencing, screening, lighting and related
