LANDSCAPING
The generous and water wise planting of mature indigenous tree species and natural rocky outcrops will create a truly majestic Lowveld appearance surrounding the residential units, as well as providing a buffer between private and public spaces.
Paved footpaths will be used where pedestrian traffic is directed to more private and intimate spaces inbetween the buildings. These paths become outdoor areas for activities like cycling, skateboarding and jogging. Seating walls located in the communal landscaped nodes and within the entertainment area, provide valuable informal park landscaping elements.
