Based on a case study in Subiaco, Western Australia, this PhD by publication explores the relationship between the physical and social aspects of residential neighbourhoods. It re-conceptualises the importance of the house front yards as semi-private-public spaces which facilitate building sense of community. Using a mixed-method approach covering observation and perception, the thesis develops built form typologies of the front yards arguing that urban design for sustainability should no longer neglect these valuable interface places. | en_US |
