Nature acts as a barrier through the bunds that surround your plots or the streams that block off access from common areas. Bunds made of stones and other landscape elements safeguard the privacy of every tenant. The use of bund in place of a typical fence or wall further enables nature to grow. Waterways that connect to the many water bodies in the property act as a fluid separator, preventing access to private plots from the public spine.
