In collaboration with award winning UK property developer Artisan, Natural Dimensions has led on the design of the outdoor space for o green community zone in the first phase of an urban village in the centre of Kirkstall, north of Leeds.
The village is planned as a climate resilient, low carbon community green zone with a tree lined pedestrian street, community gardens, orchard planting and allotment beds. Surface water is collected through tree planted roadside catchment beds and sloped bio-swales which run in a green spine through the middle of the development. Part of the site is on podium and is designed as contiguous garden space, providing private and community garden terraces.
