Existing landscape
Existing landscape: The  rows  and  clusters  of  trees  that  once  defined and separated fairways break the  site  down  into  a  series  of  avenues  and  vistas  running  predominantly  east  to  west.
Slack space:  retention  of  several  blocks  of  wild  grass, A  band  of  slack  space  runs  around  the  whole  of  the  site’s  perimeter  creating  a  wildlife  corridor  serving  as  a  threshold  between  the  countryside  and  suburbia.
Wildflower and butterfly meadow:
inclusion  of  areas  of  native  wildflower to  the  wild  grasses  that  characterise  this  redundant  site  whilst  the  idea  of  maximising  bio-Âdiversity  is  one  that  we  feel  is  extremely  important.

Natural landmarks - shared spaces
The natural assets are the most identifiable common spaces. Also due to the openness sensation, product of the houses orientation, generous open areas and lack of fences, the perception of shared spaces is enlarged.

Shared open space - as the project aims to relate with the nature, theres no disruptive boundaries such as fences or walls. The distinction is made through changes on the pavement material and low non invasive elements as planters
