69 lot subdivision
budget:
$400K
This 69 lot subdivision is nestled within surrounding bushland and ephemeral waterway ‘fingers’ which meander through the site. The waterway provides opportunities to enhance the connection between the residential allotments and the surrounding bushland thereby blurring the line between natural and built form. O2 Landscape Architecture are involved in schematic design, detailed design, tender, construction and post-construction services. An important part of this process is the negotiations with the local authority for design and hand-over of the waterway corridor.
