Thu 19 Mar, 12pm
This webinar explores how boundaries, fencing, and streetscape design shape the functionality, safety, and character of New Zealand communities. Across development types, from Medium Density Housing to master planned neighbourhoods, the way we define and design the edges of spaces directly affects how people move through, use, and experience a place.
As our urban environments intensify, landscape Architects and Designers are navigating tighter spaces, higher expectations, and the need to balance privacy, permeability, visibility, durability, and aesthetics.
Join us as we break down the key considerations and challenges of designing from the boundary line through to the public realm, and how well‑resolved decisions in these areas can strengthen both the performance and quality of a development.
