THE BENEFITS OF WATER SENSITIVE URBAN DESIGN

Urbanised catchments create vast amounts of water runoff, which can create environmental impacts in our waterways. Water Sensitive Urban Design looks at water runoff as a resource and an opportunity – to help cool our cities, create urban greenery and opportunities for nature, even local food production.

It's important to be responsible for the water that flows through your landscape. With this in mind, The Sustainable Landscape Company in partnership wth Australian Ecosystems and Biofilta are using innovative WSUD techniques at The Cape estate to filter stormwater, reduce flooding, restore biodiversity, hydrate landscapes, improve liveability and even grow food!
