A continuous charcoal trough sits only on the lawn-facing retaining ledge. It stops before the stair and sliding-gate track junction, leaving the fence-side service lane untouched.

Landscaper set-out brief

Use with site measurements and shop drawing

Internal wall garden · design and construction requirements
Item	Requirement	Site confirmation
Position	Single straight trough on lawn-facing ledge only. No element in fence-side service lane.	Survey available ledge width and level changes.
Visual envelope	Low-profile channel; imagery targets about 300–350 mm wide and about 300 mm high.	Indicative only—submit measured shop drawing before fabrication.
Finish	Matte charcoal powder-coated metal; simple folded construction, concealed fixings, neat end caps.	Confirm aluminium or suitably protected steel for exposure and soil contact.
Operational clearance	Stop before stair/track junction; preserve every step, track component and maintenance route.	Gate fully open/closed test; confirm manufacturer clearance and maintenance access.
Water & load	Free-draining planter assembly; no uncontrolled discharge onto track, stairs or retaining structure.	Confirm ledge load capacity, waterproofing, outlets and legal drainage point.
Planting character	Restrained white, pale lavender and dusty-pink flowering rhythm; compact strappy foliage; sparse controlled trailers.	Final cultivar, soil volume, spacing and quantities after sun/irrigation assessment.

Locally suitable planting candidates for the final horticultural schedule include dwarf forms of Dianella caerulea, Brachyscome multifida, Scaevola aemula and controlled Myoporum parvifolium; the landscaper should select cultivars that fit the measured soil volume and mature envelope. These plant types are described by Brisbane City Council as suitable for Brisbane conditions.

R’s short-left/long-right hedge layout is retained. The final lowers the hedge to Council’s 700 mm maximum and removes hard edging in favour of organic mulch flush with turf.

Landscaper set-out brief

Public verge requirements are mandatory hold points

Front verge · design, access and Council requirements
Item	Requirement	Site confirmation
Layout	Two runs only: short section left of true pedestrian gate; long section right. Keep full gate width, latch and approach clear.	Pin true gate edges from Original E; mark opening envelope on ground.
Mature envelope	Low-growing clipped hedge, maximum 700 mm high. Do not obstruct driveway sightlines.	Record verge levels and sight triangles; choose naturally compact cultivar.
Ground plane	Organic mulch only, flush with adjoining grass. No steel edge, gravel, aggregate, planter box, hard landscape or irrigation.	Submit turf-cut bed width and flush mulch sample.
Pedestrian access	Continuous unmade pedestrian path at least 1.2 m wide outside the mature hedge.	Measure from mature foliage face, not mulch edge; retain kerb and vehicle access.
Services & access	Utilities, post, bins and public access must remain unobstructed; verge planting may be disturbed for service works.	Obtain current Before You Dig Australia plans and pothole/locate as required.
Plant candidate	Council-listed compact candidates include Syzygium australe ‘Tiny Trev’ or Austromyrtus dulcis, maintained below 700 mm.	Landscaper to confirm cultivar availability, mature width, root habit and clipping response.

Authority basis: Brisbane City Council · Verge gardens, Verge Garden Guidelines, Recommended Planting List, and the Australian Government’s Before You Dig Australia overview, checked 2 August 2026. Do not substitute small-leaved privet (Ligustrum sinense), which Council identifies as Category 3 restricted matter.

03 · Internal validation record

Checks before handoff

The imagery and document were checked for concept fidelity, geometry, operational access, authority constraints, responsive containment and print legibility.

Handoff validation · issue 01
Check	Result	Evidence / limitation
H/G concept lineage	Pass	G fixes the lawn-facing ledge position; H supplies raised charcoal trough form; final planting density reduced.
Internal gate operations	Visual pass	Track, pavers, steps and fence-side service lane remain clear in primary view. Physical clearance remains a site hold.
R gate split	Pass	Both final exterior angles use the true left-of-centre pedestrian gate with short-left and long-right runs.
Verge compliance intent	Pass with holds	700 mm maximum, 1.2 m path, organic mulch flush to grass, no hard landscape or irrigation. Site/zone/services confirmation required.
Image realism	Pass for concept handoff	Alternate views were generated using all available photos for their area; lighting and major geometry were cross-checked. AI imagery is not survey evidence.
Document semantics	Pass	Landmarks, heading order, table captions, scoped headers, keyboard-focusable table frames and labelled comparison controls included.
