The master plan of Long Branch is centred on balancing individualism and community. Homes area clustered around cup-de-sac, and the open gate design creates and extended space for children and adults to gather and interact with each other, fostering stronger community ties. The cup-de-sac also constrains vehicular speeds, therefore creating a quitter streets cape and a safer neighbourhood for children to pay in.Sometimes, a simple delineation of space makes for a more functional, flexible home. Each Long Branch dwelling is separated into private and entertaining areas, with activity centred around the open plan living, dining and kitchen areas. Full height windows and sliding glass doors create a seamless connection with the outdoors, and a shaded terrace annexed to the living space is the perfect spot for an alfresco breakfast or a relaxing high tea.
