B5.7 Boundary treatments

Boundary treatments play an important role in creating a sense of comfort and privacy for homeowners whilst still encouraging connection with the wider community. When designed thoughtfully, boundaries can gently define personal spaces without feeling closed off, offering both privacy and security. At the same time, they help guide movement and create inviting links to streets and public areas. Balancing privacy with openness ensures that neighbourhoods feel safe, welcoming, and connected, making places where people truly feel at home.
