Edited Premise

The patterns of intervals in fences carry the transition between two spaces.

The fence acts as a membrane which separates or envelopes two spaces. Its patterns, sizes of intervals and even materials would control the permeability of physical movement and influences the connection, communication and separation between two spaces.

The degree of privacy, spatial quality and personal experience of the occupants will be affected and controlled. Unwanted materials are filtered and a nice environment is formed within the membrane. The membrane becomes stronger and more important while the permeability is decreasing. Interaction between spaces behind two membranes is hence affected.
