to bypass the dominant western conservation approach that !sets aside" land to be protected, reducing the rich interaction of it with everyday lives. Such setting aside, managed by one dominant stakeholder via various legislations, controls and restricts how North Head operates. Recently emerging conservation conceptions and Maori thinking align to promote, instead, a !living landscape", one fully entwined in as many people"s lives as possible. This project then proposes that a design investigation of the concrete relations of multiple site-stakeholder relations to be the means to produce a !living landscape", as an alternative to the current and highly restricted stakeholder situation. This investigation included strategic design moves, suggestions for stakeholder interaction, the setting down of management principles and the ongoing involvement of landscape architects in the life of this amazing landscape. Design and management would be employed to maximise stakeholder involvement and investment at North Head and maximize and explore stakeholder interactions with each other and with the site.

People occupy open space and face out towards views above to avoid the mysterious reminder of the tunnels below.

holder desires are set and irreconcilable, resulting in the perpetuation of the status quo, which is often dominated by certain stakeholders. Designers can be guilty of this but it is much more prevalent if the abilities of designers to creatively resolve different interests is not brought into play. It is a kind of secret kept by designers that clever design can get past such Coastal vegetation impasses that non-designers assume. Of course, there is a history of projects where stakeholder tensions are outside of the abilities or scope of the design problem, or even just ignored by designers.

Bunschoten still assumes that the physical and stakeholder desires are separate and evocatively suggests they need to be brought together through a !fold" (Bunschoten, 2001). His ambition remains a genral ambition only, as the physical and local authorities are mapped out separately. However, as already mentioned, I discovered that the site and stakeholders are not separate, but that their interactions are real productions of the landscape.

Relatedly, this project is also about challenging the dominant western conservation approach, which aligns with the cultural tendencies of separating people and public space through legislation and zoning. western conservation preserves, conserves and !sets aside" landscape, effectively separating such landscape use from everyday life.

Because Landscape Architects have an ability to discover and work with the potential found in stakeholder-site interactions I would suggest that they have a role in the ongoing maintenance of the site, where in particular any new desires arising for the site could be analysed by this Landscape Architect to potentialise and maximise possible new interactions, events, actions and site abilities.

The prominence of North Head on the end of an isolated peninsular, JXDUGLQJ WKH :DLWHPDWD +DUERXU DQG LWV VLJQLÀFDQFH WR D YDULHW\ RI SHRple and stakeholders makes this pace particularly amazing. The cooky mix of uses and layers of history over time at this site have allowed for many unusual, intense spaces, some of which are tense and exhilarating to move through, and all of which involve bodily relation to the site. North Head has a wilder feel about it compared to other volcanic cones in Auckland as half of it borders the Waitemata Harbour, weeds are prominent across the hill and grass banks are left to grow long.

I chose North Head as a site to investigate the potential of tension for design due to both the strong sense of tension of natural elements and existing man-made site manipulations created by different stakeholders over time, as well as the political tensions and competing concerns surrounding the site. These tensions are indivisible from north Head.

Key Findings

On closer inspection the !Walks" which Bunschoten created are quite factual and general about the stakeholder-physical relationships. The 7 walks being separate in terms of the physical drawings and the VWDNHKROGHU LQWHUYLHZ GRFXPHQWDWLRQ PHDQV WKDW LW LV GLIÀFXOW WR VHH WKH !fold" between the two, which Bunschoten claims to be creating. The physical drawings for instance begin to look at stakeholder-physical relationships: tourists under a tree, dachas on the open space, foreign elements being brought in, urban sprawl into the reserve land. These relationships are still very general however, indicating !where" in the landscape, but not !how"; and do not get down to the affects of such stakeholder/political events. The last three walks (documentation of interviews) present the opposite: indicating the political tensions and the general causes and affects of these, yet it is impossible to tell where WKHVH DUH LQà XHQFLQJ WKH SK\VLFDO ODQGVFDSH ,Q WKLV VHQVH %XQVFKRWHQ KDV QRW IXOÀOOHG KLV DLP LQ FRQQHFWLQJ WKH VWDNHKROGHU SROLWLFDO G\QDPLFV RI WKH FLW\ ZLWK WKH SK\VLFDO VLWH WR ÀQG design potential. 7R PDNH WKLV LQYHVWLJDWLRQ VW\OH PRUH HIÀFLHQW , ZLOO DWWHPSW WR OLQN WKH information provided in the seven walks together more effectively: the

Yet Bunschoten remains general, ending up separating the physical and the city dynamics (stakeholder forces) through his mapping.
