Farm & rural fencing in Redwood Christchurch

For the stock fence for a rural boundary at Redwood, Christchurch, the finished character grew directly from the first site observations; it led to a dependable rural boundary that supports straightforward property management.

At Redwood, the brief for this stock fence for a rural boundary was inseparable from a working rural edge with changing ground and regular stock pressure.

The final approach grew from those exact conditions rather than from a catalogue detail.

01 · REDWOOD BRIEF

The first conversation at Redwood focused on movement, privacy and the way the boundary was seen from a working rural edge with changing ground and regular stock pressure.

The design team paid particular attention to straight datum lines, frost-prone ground and exposure across flatter sections. That consideration affected the set-out and material detailing described in “A material response to the property's character for the stock fence for a rural boundary at Redwood, Christchurch.” rather than being treated as a generic regional note.

What would change if the Redwood stock fence for a rural boundary were longer or included another gate?
