Think not of suburban neighbours as mere characters or typological character, but as datums, offsets, setback and abutting conditions imposing to tame the site indifferently. Adjacent fences, trees, and roofs defines the sides of a site containing loose, aggregated soil, with a frontal edge bounded by a footpath bisecting the layer of road verge and the site, across a neighbourhood of adjoining lots. The ground elevation changes beyond the frontage, getting subtly lower from the ground level past the entry of the site as a flattened ground of loose soil is enclosed with fences and abutting brickwalls.
