Movement

Doors, steps, gates, seating, lawn, and service access.

Pool and garden illuminated with low warm light at night

Material

Touch, temperature, texture, transitions, and weathering.

Start with use, not a feature list.

What should become easier?

Name the everyday need, such as comfortable shade in late afternoon.

What changes elsewhere?

New zones can affect views, circulation, drainage, planting, and upkeep.
